Meeting)
The Government of the Philippines
has requested a possible sale from
Department of Defense stock of two (2)
C–130T Aircraft, and 10 T56–16 engines
(8 installed and 2 spares). Also included
are logistical sustainment and support
for a period of three years, modification
equipment and labor costs, spare and
repair parts, support equipment,
publications and technical
documentation, aircraft ferry support,
personnel training and training
equipment, U.S. Government and
contractor logistics and technical
support services, and other related
elements of logistics and program
support. The estimated cost is $61
million.
This proposed sale would contribute
to U.S. security and foreign policy goals
by building the Philippines’ maritime
domain security capacity and deepening
our overall strategic partnership with
the Philippines.
The Government of the Philippines
desires these additional C–130s to
bolster its lift capabilities, which are
essential for providing humanitarian
assistance and disaster relief. The
Philippines will use this increased lift
capability to improve the mobility and
resupply of its forces and for the
provision of humanitarian assistance in
the Philippines and the wider region,
thereby reducing the potential level of
U.S. assistance requested/needed for
these purposes. The Philippine Air
Force (PAF) already has C–130 aircraft
in its inventory and will have no
difficulty absorbing these additional
aircraft.
The proposed sale of these aircraft
and support will not alter the basic
military balance in the region.
Contractor requirements are still being
researched, and will be fulfilled through
open competition. Should USG
representatives or contractor support incountry be required in support of the
case, length of time in-country will be
minimized to the maximum practical
extent. There are no known offset
agreements proposed in connection
with this potential sale.
