Norway—C–130J Sustainment
The Government of Norway has
requested continued sustainment and
associated services for four (4) C–130J
aircraft beyond Block 6 through 2028.
Included are Joint Mission Planning
Systems (JMPS); aircraft components,
spare parts, consumables, and

unclassified publications and technical
documentation; software delivery and
support; unclassified Computer Program
Identification Number (CPIN) systems;
telecommunications support; minor
modifications, maintenance and
maintenance support; U.S. Government
and contractor engineering, technical,
and logistics support services; and other
related elements of logistical and
program support. The estimated total
cost is $166 million.
This proposed sale will support the
foreign policy goals and national
security objectives of the United States
by improving the security of a NATO
Ally that is a force for political stability
and economic progress in Europe.
The proposed sale will improve
Norway’s capability to meet current and
future threats by bolstering operational
readiness while enhancing air and
defense capabilities with a modernized
fleet. Norway already has C–130Js and
will have no difficulty absorbing these
articles and services into its armed
forces.
The proposed sale of this equipment
and support will not alter the basic
military balance in the region.
The principal contractor will be
Lockheed Martin, Marietta, GA. The
purchaser typically requests offsets. Any
offset agreement would be defined in
negotiations between the purchaser and
the contractor.
Implementation of this proposed sale
will not require the assignment of any
additional U.S. Government or
contractor representatives to Norway.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness because of this
proposed sale.

patient safety in military and veterans’
health care systems. This legislation
states that the Secretary of Defense shall
establish a patient care error reporting

occurrences of errors in patient care and
that one purpose of the system should

‘‘to provide for action to be taken to
correct the identified systemic factors’’
(Sec. 754, items b2 and b3). In addition,

care’’ (Sec. 754, item d4). As an ongoing
