POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Singapore--Ebbing Air National Guard Base Construction Services
The Government of Singapore has requested to buy construction
services at Ebbing Air National Guard Base and other related elements
of logistics and program support that will be added to a previously
implemented case whose value was under the congressional notification
threshold. The original Foreign Military Sales (FMS) case, valued at
$27 million ($0 in MDE), included 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 $353 million.
This proposed sale will enhance the foreign policy and national
security objectives of the U.S. by improving the security of a
strategic partner that is an important force for political stability
and economic progress in Asia.
The proposed sale will improve Singapore's capability to maintain
operational readiness and interoperability with U.S. and coalition
forces. Singapore 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.
There are no principal contractors associated with this potential
sale. At this time, the U.S. government is not aware of any offset
agreement proposed in connection with this potential sale. Any offset
agreement will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and the
contractor.
Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the
assignment of any additional U.S. government or contractor
representatives to Singapore.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a
result of this proposed sale.
