POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Ukraine--Air Defense Sustainment
The Government of Ukraine has requested to buy equipment and
services to support the training, sustainment, and refurbishment
measures of existing U.S.-origin air defense systems. The following
non-MDE items will be included: major modifications and maintenance
support; 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 $180 million.
This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national
security objectives of the U.S. by improving the security of a partner
country that is a force for political stability and economic progress
in Europe.
The proposed sale will improve Ukraine's ability to meet current
and future threats by further equipping it to conduct self-defense and
regional security missions with a more robust air defense capability.
Ukraine 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 contractors will be Sierra Nevada Corporation,
located in Sparks, NV; V2X, Inc., located in McLean, VA; Radionix,
located in Kyiv, Ukraine; and Systems Electronic Export, located in
Kyiv, Ukraine. 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 Ukraine.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a
result of this proposed sale.
