(viii) Date Report Delivered to 

Congress: 29 November 2011. 

Policy Justification 

United Arab Emirates—Joint Direct 

Attack Munitions 

The Government of the United Arab 

Emirates (UAE) has requested a possible 

sale of 4900 JDAM kits which includes 

304 GBU–54 Laser JDAM kits with 304 

DSU–40 Laser Sensors, 3000 GBU– 

38(V)1 JDAM kits, 1000 GBU–31(V)1 

JDAM kits, 600 GBU–31(V)3 JDAM kits, 

3300 BLU–111 500lb General Purpose 

Bombs, 1000 BLU–117 2000lb General 

Purpose Bombs, 600 BLU–109 2000lb 

Hard Target Penetrator Bombs, and four 

BDU–50C inert bombs, fuzes, weapons 

integration, munitions trainers, 

personnel training and training 

equipment, spare and repair parts, 

support equipment, U.S. government 

and contractor engineering, logistics, 

and technical support, and other related 

elements of program support. The 

estimated cost is $304 million. 

This proposed sale will contribute to 

the foreign policy and national security 

of the United States by helping to 

improve the security of a key partner 

that has been, and continues to be, an 

important force for political stability 

and economic progress in the Middle 

East. The UAE Government continues 

vital host-nation support of U.S. forces 

stationed at Al Dhafra Air Base, plays an 

important role in supporting U.S. 

regional interests, and has proven to be 

a valued partner in overseas operations. 

The proposed sale will improve the 

UAE’s capability to meet current and 

future regional threats. The UAE Air 

Force and Air Defense (AF&AD) 

continue to operate the F–16 Block 60 

aircraft. These additional munitions will 

ensure operational capability and will 

help the UAE AF&AD become one of the 

most capable air forces in the region, 

thereby serving U.S. interests by 

deterring regional aggression. These 

munitions will be used to complement 

the normal war-readiness reserve 

stockpile of munitions and provide 

munitions for routine training 

requirements. The UAE will have no 

difficulty absorbing these munitions 

into its air force. 

The proposed sale of this equipment 

and support will not alter the basic 

military balance in the region. 

The prime contractor will be The 

Boeing Company in Chicago, Illinois, 

and McAlester Army Ammunition Plant 

in McAlester, Oklahoma. There are no 

known offset agreements proposed in 

connection with this potential sale. 

Implementation of this proposed sale 

will require the assignment of 

additional U.S. Government or 

contractor representatives to the UAE. 

The number of U.S. Government and 

contractor representatives required to 

support the program will be determined 

in joint negotiations as the program 

proceeds through the development, 

production and equipment installation 

phases. 

There will be no adverse impact on 

U.S. defense readiness as a result of this 

proposed sale. 

Transmittal No. 10–56 

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. The GBU–54 is a 500lb JDAM 

variant that includes a DSU–40 Laser 

Sensor. The GBU–54 uses global 

position system aided inertial 

navigation and/or laser detection to 

guide to threat targets. The Laser sensor 

enhances standard JDAM’s reactive 

target capability by allowing rapid 

prosecution of fixed targets with large 

initial target location errors (TLE). The 

DSU–40 Laser sensor also provides the 

capability to engage some mobile 

targets. The DSU–40 Laser sensor is 

attached to a MK–82 or BLU–111 bomb 

body in the forward fuze well. The 

addition of the DSU–40 Laser sensor 

combined with additional cabling and 

mounting hardware turns a standard 

GBU–38 JDAM into a GBU–54 Laser 

JDAM. Information that might reveal 

target designation tactics and associated 

aircraft maneuvers, the probability of 

destroying specific/peculiar targets, 

vulnerabilities regarding 

countermeasures and the 

electromagnetic environment is 

classified Secret. 

2. The Joint Direct Attack Munition is 

actually a guidance kit that converts 

existing unguided free-fall bombs into 

precision-guided ‘‘smart’’ munitions. By 

adding a new tail section containing an 

Inertial Navigation System (INS) 

guidance/Global Positioning System 

(GPS) guidance to unguided bombs, the 

cost effective JDAM provides highly 

accurate weapon delivery in any 

‘‘flyable’’ weather. The INS, using 

updates from the GPS, helps guide the 

bomb to the target via the use of 

movable tail fins. 

3. Weapon accuracy is dependent on 

target coordinates and present position 

as entered into the guidance control 

unit. After weapon release, movable tail 

fins guide the weapon to the target 

coordinates. In addition to the tail kit, 

other elements in the overall system that 

are essential for successful employment 

include: 

Access to accurate target coordinates. 

INS/GPS capability. 

Operational Test and Evaluation Plan. 

4. If a technologically advanced 

adversary were to obtain knowledge of 

the specific hardware in the proposed 

sale, the information could be used to 

develop countermeasures which might 

reduce weapons system effectiveness or 

be used in the development of a system 

with similar or advanced capabilities.
