Libya—C–130J–30 Aircraft
The Government of Libya has
requested a sale of 2 C–130J–30 aircraft,
10 Rolls Royce AE 2100D3 engines (8
installed and 2 spares), aircraft
modifications, Government Furnished
Equipment (including radios), support
and test equipment, publications and
technical documentation, personnel
training and training equipment, U.S.
Government and contractor engineering,
technical and logistics support services,
and other related elements of logistical
and program support. The estimated
cost is $588 million.
This proposed sale will contribute to
the foreign policy and national security
of the United States by helping to
improve the security of Libya. The
Government of Libya uses airlift to
maintain the connection between the
central government and the country’s
outlying areas. The sale of these C–130Js
to Libya will significantly increase its
capability to provide in-country airlift
support for its forces, thus strengthening
its capacity in the security arena.
Libya intends to use these aircraft
primarily to move supplies and people
within Libya. This medium lift
capability should assist with border
security, the interdiction of known
terrorist elements, and rapid reaction to
internal security threats. In addition,
Libya intends to utilize these aircraft in
support of regional peacekeeping and
humanitarian operations. Libya, which
already operates a mix of legacy C–130s,
will have little difficulty absorbing these
aircraft, which include a three-year
training and sustainment package.
The proposed sale of this equipment
and support will not alter the basic
military balance in the region.
The prime contractor will be
Lockheed Martin-Aerospace in Marietta,
Georgia. There are no known offset
agreements in connection with this
potential sale.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will require the assignment of four
contracted Field Service Representatives
(FSR) and one Logistics Support
Representative (LSR) for a period of
three years. The FSRs and LSR will have
expertise in airframe, avionics/
electrical, propulsion systems, ground
maintenance systems, and logistics
support. Additionally, there will be a
USAF logistics specialist assisting the
purchaser to establish a supply system
in support of flight operations, supply
management, inventory control, and
documentation procedures for a period
of three years following aircraft
delivery.
