aircraft, to include: Inlet/Fan Modules, Core Engine Modules, Rear 
Compressor Drive Turbines, Fan Drive Turbine Modules, Augmentor Duct

will include support equipment, publications and technical 
documentation, U.S. Government and contractor technical, engineering, 
and logistics support services, and other related elements of program

national security of the United States by helping to improve the 
security of a NATO ally.
    The uninterrupted supply of spare parts and support will ensure the 
Hellenic Air Force sustains its aircraft fleet at the highest state of 
readiness to face any potential threats.
    The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the 
basic military balance in the region.
    The proposed sale will not be for one sole source contract for this 
sale. There are no known offset agreements proposed in connection with 
this potential sale.
    Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the 
assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor 
representatives to Greece.
    There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a 
result of this proposed sale.
