(TECRO) has requested to buy AN/TPS-77 and AN/TPS-78 radar turnkey 
systems; spare and repair parts, consumables and accessories; repair 
and return support; transportation support; personnel training and

million.
    This proposed sale is consistent with U.S. law and policy as 
expressed in Public Law 96-8.
    This proposed sale serves U.S. national, economic, and security 
interests by supporting the recipient's continuing efforts to modernize 
its armed forces and to maintain a credible defensive capability. The 
proposed sale will help improve the security of the recipient and 
assist in maintaining political stability, military balance, and 
economic progress in the region.
    The proposed sale will improve the recipient's capability to meet 
current and future threats by providing multi-mission ground-based 
radar solutions for medium to long range air surveillance. The 
recipient will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its 
armed forces.

basic military balance in the region.

known offset agreements proposed in connection with this potential
