POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Czech Republic--Large Enterprise Terminals System
The Government of the Czech Republic has requested to buy a two-
sector fixed satellite communications turnkey system, based on a Large
Enterprise Terminals (LET) system, consisting of the following non-MDE
items: communications equipment; spare parts, consumables and
accessories, and repair and return support; personnel training and
training equipment; U.S. Government and contractor engineering,
technical and logistics support services; and other related elements of
logistics and program support. The estimated total cost is $184
million.
This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and
national security objectives of the U.S. 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 the Czech Republic's capability to
strengthen its homeland defense and deter regional threats. This will
contribute to its military goals of updating capability while further
enhancing interoperability with the U.S. and other allies. The Czech
Republic 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 communications equipment will be transferred from U.S.
Government stock. 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 the Czech Republic.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a
result of this proposed sale.
