Abstract
Greece is taking significant steps in securing its air superiority in the Aegean Sea with modernised fighter jets and drone technologies. As part of a broader defense modernisation strategy “Agenda 2030”, the country is planning to integrate Switchblade drones into its military framework to bolster surveillance and precision strike capabilities. At the same time, the acquisition of F-35 jets and Rafale fighters strengthens Greece’s air defense  in response to regional tensions with Turkey. The question remains: is this buildup a proactive defense strategy  or a sign of escalating conflict  in the Mediterranean region?
