The estimated total cost is $310.5 million. This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the U.S. by improving the security of a partner country that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe. The proposed sale will improve Ukraine's capability to meet current and future threats by ensuring its pilots are effectively trained and by increasing its interoperability with the U.S. through comprehensive training with the U.S. Air Force. This proposed sale aligns with international coalition contributions for the establishment of Ukraine's F-16 program and the overall modernization of Ukraine's air force. Ukraine will have no difficulty absorbing these articles and services into its armed forces. The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region. The principal contractors will be Valiant Integrated Services, located in Herndon, VA; Top Aces Corporation, located in Mesa, AZ; Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, located in Fort Worth, TX; Pratt and Whitney, located in East Hartford, CT; Snap-on, Inc., located in Kenosha, WI; BAE Systems, Inc., located in Falls Church, VA; AAR Corporation, located in Wood Dale, IL; and Comsetra, LLC, located in Grove, OK. At this time, the U.S. Government is not aware of any offset agreement proposed in connection with this potential sale. Any offset agreement will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and the contractor. Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Ukraine. There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale. [FR Doc. 2026-00713 Filed 1-14-26; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6001-FR-P
