The U.S. State Department has approved a possible foreign military sale (FMS) to Greece allowing the Hellenic Air Force to upgrade its F-16 fleet to the advanced F-16V configuration. Lockheed Martin is principal contractor for the estimated $2.4 billion transaction, which follows earlier F-16V sales to Taiwan and South Korea and a proposed sale to Bahrain.
