I am looking for any information I can find on Greek LOT code info and markings?

Does anyone have any info on this they are willing to post?

Thanks,

Do you know if they use any number codes like those in Russia and Eastern Bloc countries?

To say no would be unclever but you may keep in mind that Greece is using a lot of Russian ordnance (directly purchased there and also got quite some from German stocks after reunion). So they have the Russian codes on then.
All items made in Greece do have the normal NATO codes to what I have seen so far.
To my opinion it would make no sense if they would use a second code system.

This might shed more light on the background:
