High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) Launchers
WASHINGTON, Sep 29, 2014
-
The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the United Arab Emirates for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) Launchers and associated equipment, parts, training and logistical support for an estimated cost of $2.5 billion. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.
The Government of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has requested a possible sale of
12 High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) Launchers
100 M57 Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) T2K (Block IA Unitary) Rockets
65 M31A1 Guided Multiple Launch Rocket (GMLRS) Unitary Pods
------------------------------------------
Paketti varmaan sisältää elinkaarihuollon ja silleen, mutta sweet Jeebus että on ihanan kallista. 12 MRLS:n halpisversiota, 100 ATACMS-ohjusta ja 65 satsia raketteja = 2.5 miljardia taalaa.
Samalla ostellaan myös vähän MRAPpeja, ilmeisesti armeijan ylijäämää: http://www.dsca.mil/sites/default/files/mas/uae_14-26.pdf
Hyvä diili jenkeille koska nuo MRAPit ovat olleet vähän sellaista ongelmajätettä Irakin sodan jälkeen, niitä on tyrkytetty mm. poliisilaitoksille (!). Herää kysymys tosin mihin UAE tarvitsee 4500(!!) ajoneuvoa?
