Achilles Shield Program Expands Security Partnership In Eastern Mediterranean
Israel and Greece have signed a major air-defense agreement valued at approximately $3.5 billion, expanding their security partnership in the Eastern Mediterranean. The program, known as Achilles’ Shield, will create a multilayered defense network built largely around Israeli technology, including Rafael’s David’s Sling and Spyder platforms. The deal also includes a separate contract for Rafael’s Drone Dome counter-drone systems and aims to support local production and maintenance capabilities in Greece.
