POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Saudi Arabia—Sustainment Support for
Tactical Air Surveillance System (TASS)
Saudi Arabia has requested to
purchase spare and repair parts, U.S.
Government and contractor engineering,
technical, and logistics support services,
and other related elements of program
support for their TASS (Tactical Air
Surveillance System) aircraft program.
Additionally, the sale will support
rehabilitation of the integrated lab
located in the United States used for
testing and troubleshooting. The total
estimated program cost will be $136
million.
The Secretary of State has determined
and provided detailed justification that
an emergency exists that requires the
immediate sale to the Kingdom of Saudi
Arabia of the above defense articles (and
defense services) in the national
security interests of the United States,
thereby waiving the Congressional
PO 00000
Frm 00074
Fmt 4703

review requirements under Section
36(b) of the Arms Export Control Act, as
amended.
This proposed sale will support the
foreign policy and national security of
the United States by helping to improve
the security of a key regional ally which
is an important force for political
stability and economic progress in the
Middle East.
The proposed sale will improve Saudi
Arabia’s surveillance capability to
counter current and future regional
threats and strengthen its homeland
defense. This is a continuation of a
previous sustainment case and Saudi
Arabia will have no difficulty absorbing
addition support in country.
The proposed sale of this equipment
and support will not alter the basic
military balance in the region.
The prime contractor will be L3
Technologies, Greenville, Texas. There
are no known offsets proposed with this
sale.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will require the assignment of up to 25
additional L3 contractor representatives
to Saudi Arabia.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.
