via Defence Blog

ELVO, Greece's main military vehicle manufacturer, is modernizing the Greek Army's 30-year-old Mercedes G-Class jeeps through a refit program. The program aims to extend the life of the vehicles by fitting new engines and automatic transmissions. This effort is an alternative to replacing the aging fleet outright.

Why it matters

The modernization program is significant as it allows the Greek Army to extend the life of its existing vehicles, potentially saving resources and improving operational capabilities. This approach can be a cost-effective way to maintain a capable fleet.
