First Rafales arrive in Greece
by Gareth Jennings
The first six of an initial batch of 18 Dassault Rafale combat aircraft ordered by the Hellenic Air Force (HAF) arrived in Greece on 19 January. The aircraft were flown to the HAF's 332 Squadron at Tanagra Air Base in the south of the country and form part of an overall order for 24 platforms.
The delivery of four single-seat and two twin-seat jets comes seven months after the HAF officially received the Rafales during a formal handover ceremony at the Dassault Aviation Flight Test Centre in France in July 2021.
