POLICY JUSTIFICATION 

Saudi Arabia—Sustainment and 

Support 

The Government of Saudi Arabia has 

requested a possible sale of follow-on 

support and services for Royal Saudi Air 

Force (RSAF) aircraft, engines and 

weapons, to include contractor 

technical services, logistics support, 

maintenance support, spares, equipment 

repair, expendables, support and test 

equipment, communication support, 

precision measuring equipment, 

personnel training and training 

equipment, technical support, exercises, 

deployments and other related elements 

of program support services, U.S. 

Government and contractor technical 

and logistics support services, and other 

related elements of logistical and 

program support. The estimated cost is 

$1.2 billion. 

This proposed sale will contribute to 

the foreign policy and national security 

of the United States by helping to 

improve the security of a friendly 

country which has been and continues 

to be an important force for political 

stability and economic progress in the 

Middle East. 

Saudi Arabia needs this follow on 

maintenance and logistical support to 

sustain the combat and operational 

readiness of its existing aircraft fleet. 

The proposed sale of this support and 

services will not alter the basic military 

balance in the region. 

There is no prime contractor involved 

in this proposed sale. There are no 

known offset agreements proposed in 

connection with this potential sale. 

Implementation of this sale will not 

require the assignment of any additional 

U.S. Government personnel or 

contractor representatives to Saudi 

Arabia. 

There will be no adverse impact on 

U.S. defense readiness as a result of this 

sale.
