According to information published by Defence Review on July 6, 2022, the Greek parliament approved new arms programs, one of which is the $400 million acquisition of the SeaGuardian MQ-9B Unmanned aerial vehicle.
MQ-9B SeaGuardian is the maritime-focused sibling of the revolutionary SkyGuardian remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS) that has been missionized using “bolt-on/bolt-off” maritime sensors.
In addition to its Lynx Multi-Mode Radar, advanced electro-optical/infrared sensor, automatic takeoff and landing capability, and the same impressive 79 ft (24m) wingspan as SkyGuardian, SeaGuardian includes a centerline wide-area maritime radar mission kit, and automatic identification system.
The Remotely Piloted Aircraft System is equipped with precision-guided munitions, Paveway IV laser-guided bomb, and Brimstone 2 air-to-surface missiles.
