POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA)—
Patriot Advanced Capability–3 (PAC–3)
Missiles and Support Equipment
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has
requested a possible sale of six hundred
(600) Patriot Advanced Capability-3
(PAC–3) Cost Reduction Initiative (CRI)
Missiles with containers, eight (8) PAC–
3 CRI Test Missiles for fly-to-buy. Also
included are PAC–3 Telemetry Kits,
PAC–3 Guidance Enhanced Missile
(GEM) Flight Test Target/Patriot as a
Target (PAAT) missiles, Fire Solution
Computers, Launcher Modification Kits,
PAC–3 Missile Round Trainers, PAC–3
Slings, Patriot Automated Logistics
System (PALS) Kits, Shorting Plugs,
spare and repair parts, lot validation
and range support, support equipment,
repair and return, publications and
technical documentation, personnel
training and training equipment,
Quality Assurance Team, U.S.
Government and contractor technical
and logistics support services, and other
related elements of logistics and
program support. The estimated total
cost is $5.4 billion.
The proposed sale will contribute to
the foreign policy and national security
of the United States by helping to
improve the security of a partner which
has been, and continues to be, an
important force for political stability
and economic progress in the Middle
East.
The proposed sale will modernize and
replenish Saudi Arabia’s current Patriot
missile stockpile, which is becoming
obsolete and difficult to sustain due to
age and limited availability of repair
parts. The purchase of the PAC–3
missiles will support current and future
defense missions and promote stability
within the region. Saudi Arabia, which
already has Patriot missiles in its
inventory, will have no difficulty
absorbing these additional missiles into
its armed forces.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

The proposed sale will not alter the
basic military balance in the region.
The principal contractors will be
Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire
Control in Dallas, Texas; and Raytheon
Corporation in Tewksbury,
Massachusetts. Although offsets are
requested, they are unknown at this
time and will be determined during
negotiations between Saudi Arabia and
the contractor.
Implementation of this sale will
require approximately thirty (30) U.S.
Government and forty (40) contractor
representatives to travel to Saudi Arabia
for up to sixty (60) months for
equipment de-processing, fielding,
system checkout, training, and technical
logistics support.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.

permit development of information
which may lead to a significant threat to

technologically advanced adversary
were to obtain knowledge of the specific

information could be used to develop
countermeasures that might reduce
weapon system effectiveness or be used
in the development of a system with
similar advanced capabilities.
5. A determination has been made
that Saudi Arabia can provide
substantially the same degree of
protection for this technology as the
U.S. Government. This proposed sale is
necessary in furtherance of the U.S.
foreign policy and national security
objectives outlined in the Policy
Justification.
