Greek security and military technology demonstrations

Overview

At the 90th Thessaloniki International Fair, Greek security and defense entities showcased technological advancements and modernization efforts.

The Greek Special Anti-Terrorist Unit (EKAM) performed a tactical demonstration simulating an armed robbery. The exercise featured the use of ‘Spot’, a robotic dog from the ATLAS network, to provide live video feeds and assist in neutralizing a suspect. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis attended the event, where officials highlighted the importance of integrating technology to increase police effectiveness.

Simultaneously, the Greek Armed Forces presented a unified pavilion under the theme ‘A New Reality in the Armed Forces’. This exhibition focused on ‘Agenda 2030’, a strategic plan for structural optimization and equipment modernization. Displays included unmanned aerial vehicles, FPV and tank simulators, F-35 simulators, and the ‘Kentauros’ anti-aircraft system, alongside contributions from the Hellenic Aerospace Industry and the Hellenic Defense Innovation Center.
