Date: December 16, 2025

(iii) Description: On December 16, 2025, Congress was notified by
congressional certification transmittal number 25-79 of the possible
sale, under Section 36(b)(1) of the Arms Export Control Act, of one
hundred forty (140) M1151A1 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles
(HMMWVs). Also included were RF-7850M-HH multiband handheld radio;
Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver; Quicklook electronic counter-
counter measures (ECCM) waveform; spare and repair parts; publications
and technical documentation; training; U.S. Government and contractor
engineering; technical and logistics support services; and other
related elements of logistics and program support. The estimated total
value was $34.5 million. Major defense equipment (MDE) constituted $31
million of this total.
This transmittal notifies the addition of the following MDE items:
up to three hundred thirty (330) M1151A1 HMMWVs. The following non-MDE
items will also be included: RF-7850M-HH multiband handheld radio, GPS
receiver, Quicklook ECCM waveform; spare and repair parts; publications
and technical documentation; personnel training and training equipment;
technical and logistics support services; and other related elements of
program and logistics support. The estimated total value of the new
items is $34.5 million. The estimated MDE value will increase by $120
million to a revised $151 million. The estimated non-MDE value will
increase by $20 million to a revised $23.5 million. The estimated total
case value will increase by $140 million to a revised $174.5 million.
MDE constitutes $151 million 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 sale will
provide a highly mobile and light combat vehicle capability enabling
Lebanese Armed Forces to rapidly engage and defeat perimeter security
threats and readily employ counter- and anti-terrorism measures. This
acquisition will afford additional military-to-military tactics and
operational training among the U.S. Army's and Lebanon's leadership and
soldiers.
(v) Justification: This proposed sale will support the foreign
policy and national security of the United States by improving the
security of a partner country that continues to be an important force
for political stability and economic progress in the Middle East.
(vi) Sensitivity of Technology: None
(vii) Date Report Delivered to Congress: July 21, 2026
