POLICY JUSTIFICATION
(U) Ukraine--Joint Direct Attack Munitions--Extended Range
(U) The Government of Ukraine has requested to buy one thousand two
hundred (1,200) KMU-572 joint direct attack munition (JDAM) tail kits;
and three hundred thirty-two (332) KMU-556 JDAM tail kits. The
following non-MDE items will also be included: FMU-139 fuze systems;
JDAM support equipment; spare and repair parts, consumables and
accessories, and repair and return support; weapons software and
support equipment; classified and unclassified publications and
technical documentation; transportation support; studies and surveys;
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 $373.6 million.
(U) This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national
security objectives of the United States by improving the security of a
partner country that is a force for political stability and economic
progress in Europe.
(U) The proposed sale will improve Ukraine's capability 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.
(U) The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter
the basic military balance in the region.
(U) The principal contractor will be Boeing Company, located in St.
Louis, MO. 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.
(U) Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the
assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor
representatives to Ukraine.
(U) There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a
result of this proposed sale.
Transmittal No. 26-30
Notice of Proposed Issuance of Letter of Offer Pursuant to Section
36(b)(1) of the Arms Export Control Act
Annex
Item No. vii
(vii) Sensitivity of Technology:
1. (U) The joint direct attack munition--extended range (JDAM-ER)
consists of a bomb body paired with a warhead-specific tail kit
containing an inertial navigation system/global positioning system
guidance capability that converts unguided free-fall bombs into
accurate, adverse weather ``smart'' munitions. The ER wing kit can be
readily installed on existing JDAM MK-82 500-lb weapons and JDAM MK-84
2000-lb weapons in the field and can also be used with a MK-82 laser
JDAM weapon. The JDAM weapon can be used against a variety of land and
surface targets during the day or night. The JDAM can receive target
coordinates via preplanned mission data from the delivery aircraft, by
onboard aircraft sensors (i.e., Forward-Looking Infrared radar, etc.)
during captive carry, or from a third-party source via manual or
automated aircrew cockpit entry.
2. (U) The FMU-139 joint programmable fuze (JPF) is a multi-delay,
multi-arm, and proximity sensor compatible with general purpose blast,
frag, and hardened-target penetrator weapons. The JPF settings are
cockpit
[[Page 34617]]
selectable in flight when used with numerous precision-guided weapons.
3. (U) The highest level of classification of defense articles,
components, and services included in this potential sale is SECRET.
4. (U) If a technologically advanced adversary were to obtain
knowledge of the specific hardware and software elements, the
information could be used to develop countermeasures that might reduce
system effectiveness or be used in the development of a system with
similar or advanced capabilities.
5. (U) A determination has been made that Ukraine can provide
substantially the same degree of protection for the sensitive
technology being released as the U.S. Government. This proposed sale is
necessary in furtherance of the U.S. foreign policy and national
security objectives outlined in the Policy Justification
6. (U) All defense articles and services listed in this transmittal
have been authorized for release and export to the Government of
Ukraine.
