(iii) Description: On March 12, 2024, Congress was notified by
congressional certification transmittal number 24-33 of the possible
sale, under Section 36(b)(1) of the Arms Export Control Act, of up to
eight hundred twenty-one (821) AGM-158B-2 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff
Missiles (JASSM) with Extended Range All-Up-Rounds. The following non-
major defense equipment (MDE) items were also included: AGM-158 JASSM
classified test equipment; weapon system support; integration and test
support equipment; classified software delivery and support;
unclassified publications and technical documentation; transportation;
U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical, and logistics
support services; and other related elements of logistics and program
support. The total estimated value was $1.77 billion. MDE constituted
$1.67 billion of this total.
This transmittal notifies the inclusion of the following MDE items:
up to five (5) AGM-158 inert JASSMs with test instrumentation kits (1
installed, 4 spares). The following non-MDE items will also be
included: other related elements of program and logistics support. The
estimated total value of the new items is $21 million but will not
require an increase in the estimated total case value. The estimated
total value of the new MDE items is $18 million and does not result in
a net increase in total cost of MDE. The estimated total cost of the
new non-MDE items is $3 million and does not result in a net increase
in total cost of non-MDE. The estimated total case value of $1.77
billion will remain unchanged. MDE remains $1.67 billion of this total.
(iv) Significance: This notification accounts for requested
additional MDE and non-MDE items not included in the original
notification. The inclusion of this MDE represents an increase in
capability over what was previously notified. The proposed articles and
services will support Poland's AGM-158 flight test program required for
the Poland F-16 Viper configuration upgrade.
(v) Justification: This proposed sale will support the foreign
policy and national security of the United States by improving the
security of a NATO Ally that is a force for political and economic
stability in Europe.
(vi) Sensitivity of Technology:
The flight certification vehicle will be used during flight testing
to verify compatibility of the AGM-158 munitions with the F-16 aircraft
software under Poland's F-16 Viper upgrade program. The Global
Positioning System/Precise Positioning Service is to be provided by
either Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module or M-Code.
The highest level of classification of defense articles,
components, and services included in this potential sale is SECRET.
