POLICY JUSTIFICATION
United Kingdom—Hellfire Missiles
The Government of the United
Kingdom (UK) requested a possible sale
of 1,000 AGM–114–R1/R2 Hellfire II
Semi-Active Laser (SAL) Missiles with
logistics support services and other
related program support. The estimated
cost is $150 million.
This proposed sale directly
contributes to the foreign policy and
national security policies of the United
States by enhancing the close air
support capability of the UK in support
of NATO and other coalition operations.
Commonality between close air support
capabilities greatly increases
interoperability between our two
countries’ military and peacekeeping
forces and allows for greater burden
sharing.
The proposed sale improves the UK’s
capability to meet current and future
threats by providing close air support to
counter enemy attacks on coalition
ground forces in the U.S. Central
Command area of responsibility (AOR)
and other areas, as needed. The UK
already has Hellfire missiles in its
inventory and will have no difficulty
absorbing these additional missiles.
The proposed sale of this equipment
and support will not alter the basic
military balance in the region.
There is no principal contractor for
this sale as the missiles are coming from
U.S. stock.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will not require the assignment of any
additional U.S. Government or
contractor representatives to the UK.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.
The SAL missile homes in on the laser
energy reflected off a target that has
been illuminated by a laser designator.
The laser can be on either the launch
platform or another platform that can be
separated from it by several kilometers.
The target sets are armor, bunkers,
caves, enclosures, boats, and enemy
personnel. The weapon system
hardware, as an ‘‘All Up Round,’’ is
UNCLASSIFIED. The highest level of
classified information to be disclosed
regarding the AGM–114–R1/R2 Hellfire
II missile software is SECRET. The
highest level of classified information
that could be disclosed by a proposed
sale or by testing of the end item is
SECRET and the highest level that must
be disclosed for production,
maintenance, or training is
CONFIDENTIAL.
The AGM–114 R1/R2 Hellfire II missiles use
pulse-coded laser illumination. The R2
variant includes a Height-of-Burst (HOB)/
proximity sensor. The AGM–114–R1/R2
missiles each have a multi-purpose selectable
warhead and inertial measurement unit
(IMU)-Aided Trajectories. The missiles
United Kingdom operators employ are only
handled by USAF personnel. The United
Kingdom does not take possession of, or store
the missile, and this policy has been in place
since 2008.
2. If a technologically advanced
adversary obtained knowledge of the
specific hardware and software
elements, the information could be used
to develop countermeasures or
equivalent systems which might reduce
system effectiveness or be used in the
development of a system with similar or
advanced capabilities.
3. A determination has been made
that the United Kingdom can provide
substantially the same degree of
protection for the AGM–114–R1/R2
Hellfire II missiles as the U.S.
Government. Transfer of these missiles
to the UK is necessary in the furtherance
of U.S. foreign policy and national
security objectives.
4. All defense articles and services
listed in this transmittal have been
authorized for release and export to the
United Kingdom.
