Greece will be receiving the first three of seven MH-60R Seahawk (Romeo) helicopters within the first few months of 2024, Lockheed Martin confirmed on Wednesday.

A Lockheed Martin statement said Sikorsky had completed the testing of the integrated mission systems and sensors aboard three MH-60R Seahawk helicopters for the Hellenic Navy early in December 2023, and confirmed that each helicopter is ready to perform anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare missions from land or naval ship.

Greece placed separate orders for MH-60R aircraft – four in July 2020, and three in April 2021 – as a Foreign Military Sales purchase with the US government. After delivery of the first three, the remaining four will arrive in 2025, the manufacturer said.
