Israel and Cyprus signed an agreement for Israel to supply a new offshore patrol vessel equipped with Rafael naval systems, alongside upgrades to Cyprus's existing Israel-built patrol vessel. This deal strengthens Cyprus Naval Command's maritime patrol, surveillance, and search-and-rescue capabilities and reflects deeper defense cooperation between the two countries focused on regional stability.

The Cyprus naval market just opened further for Israeli defence firms. If you supply patrol vessel tech or maritime systems, expect fresh demand and consider faster routes to support Cyprus’s expanding capabilities.
