Greece’s defence capabilities have been strengthened by the SCALP-EG missile system, a Franco-British weapon designed for precision strikes on strategic targets. Greece has deployed these missiles on Mirage 2000-5 and Rafale F3R jets, while its Navy is now integrating the naval variant, SCALP Naval, on new FDI frigates with a range of up to 1,000 kilometres. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s use of the British Storm Shadow, a SCALP variant, in strikes against Russian targets highlights the system’s role in modern warfare.
