THE NETHERLANDS – HELLFIRE MISSILES

WASHINGTON, February 2, 2024 - The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of the Netherlands of Hellfire Missiles and related equipment for an estimated cost of $150 million. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.

The Government of the Netherlands has requested to buy up to three hundred eighty-six (386) Hellfire Air-to-Ground Missiles, AGM-114R2. Also included is U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) Security Assistance Management Directorate (SAMD) technical assistance; Tactical Aviation and Ground Munitions (TAGM) Project Office technical assistance; non-standard books, publications, and other Hellfire publications; integration support; and other related elements of logistics and program support. The estimated total cost is $150 million.

This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the United States by improving the security of a NATO Ally that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe.

The proposed sale will improve the Netherlands' capability to strengthen its homeland defense and deter regional threats. This will contribute to its military goals of updating capability while further enhancing interoperability with the United States and other allies. The Netherlands will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces.

The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region.

The principal contractor will be Lockheed Martin Corporation in Orlando, FL. The purchaser typically requests offsets. Any offset agreement will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and the contractor(s).

Implementation of this proposed sale will require U.S. Government or contractor representatives to travel to the Netherlands for program management reviews to support the program.

There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.

The description and dollar value are for the highest estimated quantity and dollar value based on initial requirements. Actual dollar value will be lower depending on final requirements, budget authority, and signed sales agreement(s), if and when concluded.

All questions regarding this proposed Foreign Military Sale should be directed to the State Department's Bureau of Political Military Affairs, Office of Congressional and Public Affairs, pm-cpa@state.gov.

Citaat van: Kornet43 op 21/12/2023 | 11:49 uurEn ze hebben nog 330 stuks Oto Melara mod 56 105MM in reserve, dus ga het Nederlandse Madurodam leger niet vergelijken met de Esercito Italiano, want dan kom je niet ver. En tot slot beschikken de Italianen nog over een omvangrijke defensie industrie die kan opschalen naar oorlogsproductie. En alle rekeningen van de Italiaanse overheid worden betaald door de Duitse en Nederlandse belastingbetaler.

Bwhaha hou toch op. Je bedoelt hetzelfde leger wat de Taliban heeft betaald om met rust gelaten te worden in Afghanistan en naar Oekraine uitblinkt in oude niet bruikbare zooiz en een reputatie als krijgsmacht heeft die in overal niet uitblinkt, en om het over operationele en materiele gereedheid maar niet te hebben.

Hou toch op man, je hebt nog geen dag gediend. Alsof je er maar iets over kunt zeggen. Het esercito italiano, ze hebben wel mooie uniformen, dat wel.

Citaat van: Thomasen op 21/12/2023 | 09:17 uurZe hebben natuurlijk wel nog M270.

En daarnaast nog de PzH2000, FH70 en AMX-I. Het blijft larog en verdere groei is te verwachten, maar ik verwacht in een ander systeem.

Hm, wij hebben straks 20 Puls systemen. Toch wel een verschil als je de grootte qua inwonertal en economie tussen Nederland en Italië vergelijkt.
