France—E–2C Hawkeye Sustainment
Support
The Government of France has
requested to buy additional non-MDE
E–2C Hawkeye sustainment items and
services that will be added to a
previously implemented case. The
original Foreign Military Sales (FMS)
case, valued at $99.6 million, included
E–2C Hawkeye sustainment support.
Therefore, this notification is for E–2C
Hawkeye sustainment support, which
includes an Engine Component
Improvement Program (CIP); software
updates; technical publications; U.S.
Government, and contractor technical
and product support and assistance; and
other related elements of logistics and
program support. The estimated total
cost is $160 million.
This proposed sale will support the
foreign policy and national security
objectives of the U.S. by helping to

improve the security of a NATO Ally
that is an important force for political
stability and economic progress in
Europe.
The proposed sale will improve
France’s capability to meet current and
future threats in the European domain
by maintaining its E–2C fleet in fully
mission-capable status and sustain
interoperability with U.S. and NATO
forces. France 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 U.S. contractor will be
Northrop Grumman, Melbourne, FL.
There are no known offset agreements
proposed in connection with this
potential sale.
Implementation of the proposed sale
will require occasional government
personnel to visit France on a temporary
basis and one contractor personnel to be
permanently assigned in France in
conjunction with program technical
oversight and support requirements,
including program and technical
reviews as well as training and
maintenance support.
There will be no adverse impact on
U.S. defense readiness as a result of this
proposed sale.
