Greece opens talks on acquiring US Precision Strike Missile

Greece has initiated discussions with Lockheed Martin regarding the potential acquisition of the U.S.-made Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), aimed at enhancing its long-range artillery capabilities. The talks follow an initial meeting during the Eurosatory arms exhibition in Paris, with plans for further meetings in Athens to draft a formal request to the U.S. government. The PrSM, a tactical ballistic missile with a range over 500 kilometers, would complement Greece’s recently acquired Israeli PULS rocket systems. Officials suggest the system could be operationally ready by 2030. As part of the proposal, Greece may upgrade 15 of its 36 M270 multiple-launch rocket systems to the A2 configuration to support the PrSM, while also considering the purchase of 15 new HIMARS launchers and the sale of 15 older M270 systems to fund the program.
