On March 26, 2025, in Athens, KNDS France and the Greek company Metlen Energy & Metals signed an exclusive partnership agreement that allows the production of the VBCI Philoctetes infantry fighting vehicle (BMP) in Greece. The agreement includes the transfer of experience in the field of aluminum armor and localized production of the VBCI Mk2 welded structure at Metlen's facilities in Volos.
This is the first time that KNDS France has entered into a partnership of this magnitude for the production of 8x8 armored vehicles. The agreement is aimed at meeting the needs of the Greek Army for a large number of infantry fighting vehicles and possibly other European customers. The agreement also aims to increase the availability of equipment by locating both production and service facilities in Greece.
