POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Israel--Heavy Duty Tank Trailers
The Government of Israel has requested to buy additional Heavy Duty
Tank Trailers (HDTT) that will be added to a previously implemented
case whose value was under the congressional notification threshold.
The original FMS case, valued at $40.1 million ($0 in MDE), included
HDTTs; spare and repair parts; tool kits; driver tools; corrosion
protection; publications and technical documentation; U.S. Government
support; technical and logistics support services; storage; and other
related elements of logistics and program support. This notification is
for the items in the original case and the additional HDTTs. The
estimated total cost is $164.6 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 in the defense of its borders. Israel will have no
difficulty absorbing this equipment 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 Leonardo DRS, located in
Arlington, VA. 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.
