POLICY JUSTIFICATION
Spain--F-404 Engine Fans
The Government of Spain has requested to buy an additional two
hundred fifty (250) F-404 engine fans that will be added to a previous
implemented case whose value was under the congressional notification
threshold. The original Foreign Military Sales (FMS) case was valued at
$98.80 million ($11.25 million in MDE) and included fifty (50) F-404
engine fans, Computer Power Supply (CP-1325/APG-65), Receiver Exciter
(R-2089/APG-65), spare parts, consumables, and accessories, classified
software delivery and support. This notification is for a combined
total of two hundred fifty (250) F-404 engine fans. The following non-
MDE items will also be included: Computer Power Supply (CP-1325/APG-
65), Receiver Exciter (R-2089/APG-65), associated services and
equipment, spare parts, consumables, and accessories, and classified
software delivery and support; 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 $200 million.
The proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national
security objectives of the U.S. by improving the security of a North
Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) ally that is an important force for
political stability and economic progress in Europe.
The proposed sale will improve Spain's capability to meet current
and future threats and will enhance interoperability with U.S. forces
and other allied forces. The enhanced capability will also strengthen
its homeland defense. Spain 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 F-404 engine fans will be transferred from United States Navy
stock. 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 Spain.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a
result of this proposed sale.
