The heavy equipment and weaponry of the Hellenic Army is of mostly foreign manufacture, from German, French, American and British suppliers. A notable exception is the native-built Leonidas armored fighting vehicle.

Equipment runs the gamut from state-of-the art to obsolescent Cold War inventories; the latter are gradually being retired.
