India—UGM–84L Harpoon Missiles
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Notice of Proposed Issuance of Letter of
Offer Pursuant to Section 36(b)(1) of the
Arms Export Control Act, as amended
Office of the Secretary
The Government of India has
requested a possible sale of 12 UGM–
84L Harpoon Block II Encapsulated
Missiles, 10 UTM–84L Harpoon
Encapsulated Training missiles, 2
Encapsulated Harpoon certification
training vehicles, containers, spare and
repair parts, support and test
equipment, personnel training and
training equipment, publications and
technical data, U.S. Government and
contractor engineering and logistics
support services, and other related
elements of logistics support. The
estimated cost is $200 million.
This proposed sale will contribute to
the foreign policy and national security
of the United States by helping to
strengthen the U.S.-India strategic
relationship and to improve the security
of an important partner which continues
to be an important force for political
stability, peace, and economic progress
in South Asia.
This Harpoon missile system will be
employed on the Indian Navy’s
Shishumar class submarine (Type-209)
and will provide enhanced capabilities
in defense of critical sea lines of
communication. India has already
purchased Harpoon missiles for
integration on Indian Air Force Jaguar
aircraft and Indian Navy P–8I maritime
patrol aircraft. India will have no
difficulty absorbing these additional
missiles into its armed forces.
This proposed sale of Harpoon
missiles will not alter the basic military
balance in the region.
The principal contractors will be the
Boeing Company in St Louis, Missouri;
and Delex Systems Inc., in Vienna,
Virginia. In accordance with the Indian
Defense Procurement Policy, a
contractor may be expected to conclude
offset agreements with the Government
of India but no offset agreement is
currently known to have been proposed
in connection with this potential sale.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will not require the assignment of any
additional U.S. Government or
contractor personnel to India. However,
U.S. Government or contractor
personnel in-country visits will be
required on a temporary basis for
program, technical, and management
oversight and support requirements for
approximately five years.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.

Item No. vii
AGENCY:
(vii) Sensitivity of Technology:
1. The UGM–84L Harpoon
Encapsulated Block II missile system is
classified Confidential. The Harpoon
missile is a non-nuclear tactical weapon
system currently in service in the U.S.
Navy and in 28 other foreign nations. It
provides a day, night, and adverse
weather, standoff air-to-surface
capability and is an effective AntiSurface Warfare missile. The UGM–84L
incorporates components, software, and
technical design information that are
considered sensitive. The following
components being conveyed by the
proposed sale that are considered
sensitive and are classified Confidential
include:
a. The Radar Seeker
b. The Guidance Control Unit GPS/INS
System
c. Operational Flight Program Software
d. Missile operational characteristics
and performance data
These elements are essential to the
ability of the Harpoon missile to
selectively engage hostile targets under
a wide range of operations, tactical and
environmental conditions.
2. If a technologically advanced
adversary were to obtain knowledge of
the specific hardware and software
elements, the information could be used
to develop countermeasures which
might reduce weapon system
effectiveness or be used in the
development of a system with similar or
advanced capabilities.
3. A determination has been made
that the recipient country can provide
the same degree of protection for the
sensitive technology being released as
the U.S. Government. This sale is
necessary in furtherance of the U.S.
foreign policy and national security
objectives outlined in the Policy
Justification.
4. All defense articles and services
listed in this transmittal have been
authorized for release and export to the
Government of India.
