You can use postaction along with dash pattern for this.
documentclass[tikz]standalone
begindocument
begintikzpicture
draw[->,postaction=-,draw=green,dash pattern=on 0pt off 5cm on 2cm off 2cm] (0,0) -- (25:8cm) ;

Is it possible to use some kind of solid pattern instead of dash?

@Nip What precisely do you mean? It is a solid line between 5cm and 7cm.

If you think there is dash pattern between 5cm and 7cm then you didn't get the "cleverness" of this method.

@Nip I confirm that (with some viewers) you can see relics of the black line if you usewhite. Do they disappear on you viewer if you dodraw[->,postaction=-,draw=white,line width=0.42pt,dash pattern=on 0pt off 5cm on 2cm off 2cm] (0,0) -- (25:8cm) ;instead? BTW, if you just want a white gap, you could just dodraw[->,dash pattern=on 5cm off 2cm on 2cm] (0,0) -- (25:8cm) ;.
