VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:37 Apr 07, 2020 Jkt 250001 This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security of an important Major NonNATO ally in the region. This sale is consistent with U.S. initiatives to provide key partners in the region with modern systems that will enhance interoperability with U.S. forces and increase security. The proposed upgrade will allow the Jordan Armed Forces (JAF) to fire Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System-Alternative Warhead (GMLRSAW) rockets using a digital fire control system. The expansion will ensure uniformity among all indirect fire systems used by the JAF. The upgrade and expansion of the AFATDS fire control system will allow the JAF to defend its borders and ground forces with indirect fire weapon systems. This proposed sale will advance the JAF’s efforts to modernize its military and to enhance interoperability with U.S., allied, and coalition military forces. Jordan will have no difficulty absorbing these defense articles and services into its armed forces. The proposed sale will not alter the basic military balance in the region. The prime contractors for the AFATDS and supporting equipment include Raytheon Company and the Harris Company. There are no known offset agreements in connection with this potential sale. Implementation of this sale will not require the assignment of any U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Jordan. There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.

All equipment, documentation, software and associated information proposed in this sale is UNCLASSIFIED. 2. The AFATDS software and tailored, international ballistic kernel included in this proposed sale will be formally tested to verify release for export and to verify the excision of any and all elements not authorized for release or export to Jordan. 3. If a technologically advanced adversary were to obtain knowledge of the hardware and software elements, the information could be used to develop countermeasures or equivalent systems which might reduce system PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 19751 effectiveness or be used in the development of a system with similar or advanced capabilities. 4. A determination has been made that the Jordan can provide substantially 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.
