integrated secure broadcast systems (KSX-5); communications security
devices (KGV-135A); technical, programmatic, engineering, and
logistical support for the Tomahawk AUR missiles, TTWCS, mission
distribution software; missile containers; software; hardware;
training; training devices; unscheduled missile maintenance; spares;
in-service support; communication equipment; operational flight test;
publications; engineering and technical expertise to maintain the
capability; non-recurring engineering; transportation; and other
related elements of logistics and program support. The estimated total
cost was $2.19 billion. MDE constituted $0.95 billion of this total.
This transmittal notifies the inclusion of the following non-MDE
items: Block V Vertical Launch System test missiles; Theater Mission
Planning Center (TMPC) communications system; and the TMPC Mission
Planning System. The estimated total value of the new items is $400
million. No additional MDE items will be added and will remain at $0.95
billion. The estimated non-MDE value will increase by $400 million to a
revised $1.64 billion. The estimated total case value will increase by
$400 million to a revised $2.59 billion. MDE will remain $0.95 billion
of this total.
(iv) Significance: This notification accounts for requested
additional non-MDE items not included in the original notification. The
inclusion of this non-MDE represents an increase in capability over
what was previously notified. The proposed articles and services will
support Netherlands capability to meet current and future threats by
planning missions to employ long-range, conventional surface-to-surface
missiles with significant standoff range that can neutralize growing
threats.
(v) Justification: This proposed sale will support the foreign
policy and national security objectives of the United States by
improving the security of a NATO Ally which is an important force for
political stability and economic progress in Europe.
(vi) Sensitivity of Technology:
The Block V Test Missiles are test missiles to be launched from the
Netherlands' Air Defense and Command Frigates to certify the platform
ahead of Initial Operational Capability.
The Tomahawk mission planning capability contains dynamic
technology, hardware, and software which enhances the operational
employment of the Tomahawk Land Attack Missile.
The highest level of classification of defense articles,
components, and services included in this potential sale is SECRET.
(vii) Date Report Delivered to Congress: May 18, 2026
