The Chief of Hellenic Army General Staff, Lieutenant General Charalampos Lalousis was present at the headquarters of the 1st Army Aviation Brigade (1st CLASS) “Kilkis Lachana”, at the 404 General Military Hospital of Larissa and at the 303 Advanced Base Factory.

General Charalampos Lalousis inspected the premises and facilities, noted the high level of operational readiness and morale of the staff, thanked them for the work they are doing, and gave directions for the execution of their mission.

In the Army Air Force, a major effort is underway to reactivate all existing Army Air Force assets, which in the first phase includes support programmes for the NH90, CH-47D, OH-58D, and AH-64A helicopters.
