Greece
17th on this list is Greece with 1,556 tanks, and 4,209 armored personnel carriers. More impressively, given Greece’s abysmal financial state, is that much of this equipment is modern. Greece also has 180,000 active soldiers, who are well trained, and have combat experience.
Greece is a member of NATO, and has contributed soldiers for the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Greece has also contributed soldiers for United Nations Peacekeeping operations.
