- Following negotiations led by Lieutenant General Demosthenes Grigoriadis, the project’s initial estimate of about €1.52 billion was reduced to €1.1 billion.
- Once completed, all 121 Greek F-16s are intended to meet the Viper standard, with unified sensors, weapon systems, and operational capabilities.
- The conversion includes the AN/APG-83 SABR AESA radar, a modular mission computer, targeting helmets, self-protection systems, and capacity for AIM-120D and JDAM weapons.
- The Hellenic Aerospace Defense Agency (EAB) is expected to upgrade all 38 aircraft, with work scheduled to begin in mid-2028 after the first program phase ends.
