    Dear Mr. Speaker: Pursuant to section 36(c) of the Arms Export 
Control Act, I am transmitting herewith certification of a proposed 
export of defense articles or defense services sold under contract 
in the amount of $50,000,000 or more.
    The transaction described in the attached certification involves 
training, operation and maintenance for Peace Shield, a command, 
control and communications system supporting air defense for the 
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
    The United States Government is prepared to license the export 
of these items having taken into account political, military, 
economic, human rights, and arms control considerations.
    More detailed information is contained in the formal 
certification which, although unclassified, contains business 
information submitted to the Department of State by the applicant, 
publication of which could cause competitive harm to the United 
States firm concerned.

      Sincerely,
Barbara Larkin,
Assistant Secretary, Legislative Affairs.
Enclosure: Transmittal No. DTC-3-98

The Honorable Newt Gingrich, Speaker of the House of 
Representatives.
