POLICY JUSTIFICATION

Israel--M1148A1P2 Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles

    The Government of Israel has requested to buy additional modified 
M1148A1P2 Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) Load Handling 
System (LHS) 8-ton cargo trucks that will be added to a previously-
implemented Foreign Military Sales (FMS) case whose value was under the 
congressional notification threshold. The original FMS case, valued at 
$62.4 million ($0 in Major Defense Equipment (MDE)), included modified 
M1148A1P2 FMTV LHS 8-ton cargo trucks and support. This notification is 
for the

combined total of modified M1148A1P2 FMTV LHS 8-ton cargo trucks. Also 
included are armor b-kits; corrosion protection; special tools and test 
equipment; integration and test support; spare and repair parts; 
software delivery and support; publications and technical 
documentation; personnel training and training equipment; U.S. 
Government and contractor engineering, technical, and logistics support 
services; storage; and other related elements of logistics and program 
support. The estimated total cost is $583.1 million.
    The United States is committed to the security of Israel, and it is 
vital to U.S. national interests to assist Israel to develop and 
maintain a strong and ready self-defense capability. This proposed sale 
is consistent with those objectives.
    The proposed sale will improve Israel's capability to meet current 
and future threats, strengthen its homeland defense, and serve as a 
deterrent to regional threats. Israel 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 the Oshkosh Corporation, located 
in Oshkosh, WI. There are no known offset agreements proposed in 
connection with this potential sale.
    Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the 
assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor 
representatives to Israel.
    There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a 
result of this proposed sale.
