The Defense Security Cooperation Agency said Thursday it has notified Congress of the potential foreign military sale, which will have RTX as the principal contractor. The proposed deal covers the procurement of 1,200 AIM-120 D-3 and AIM-120 C-8 AMRAAM, up to four AIM-120C-8 guidance sections and as many as 20 AIM-120D-3 guidance sections, including precise positioning provided by Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module or M-Code.
Japan also requested non-MDE items, particularly AMRAAM propulsion sections, warheads, AIM-120 Captive Air Training Missiles, missile containers and control section spares. Also included in the potential agreement are common munitions built-in test reprogramming equipment, ADU-891 adaptor group test sets, munitions support and support equipment, spare and repair parts, consumables, accessories and repair and return support.
Other items requested by the Asian nation are classified software delivery and support, classified publications and technical documentation, transportation support, studies and surveys, warranties, U.S. government and contractor engineering and technical and logistical support.
The proposed FMS deal is intended to enhance Japan’s defense capabilities against existing and future threats by safeguarding the nation and American personnel stationed there.
