But, oddly, Greece didn't offer a single one even though as Europe's largest tank-owning nation it possesses more than 1,300 armored vehicles—six times more than the United Kingdom. Greece justifies its large collection because of its long-standing territorial dispute with Turkey, which owns 2,492 tanks.
Linothorax armor made out of linen fabric was the most common form of infantry torso armor, being cheap and relatively light. Bronze breastplate armor was also used, in forms such as a bell cuirass.
Greece has pockets of naval excellence. Its German-designed submarines are "almost undetectable by Turkish sonar", says Emmanuel Karagiannis of King's College London, and its nippy corvettes are armed with French Exocet missiles of the sort that wounded the Royal Navy in the Falklands war.
Its main allies are the United States, France, Italy, Bulgaria, the other NATO countries, Cyprus and the rest of the European Union.
Greece didn't have any tanks in the war. The Royal Hellenic Air Force (Ellinikí Vasilikí Aeroporía, RHAF) had to face the numerically and technologically superior Regia Aeronautica. It comprised 45 fighters, 24 lightbombers, nine reconnaissance aircraft, about 65 auxiliary aeroplanes and 28 naval cooperation aircraft.
