REPORT OF ENHANCEMENT OR UPGRADE OF SENSITIVITY OF TECHNOLOGY OR

    (i) Purchaser: Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
    (ii) Sec. 36(b)(1), AECA Transmittal No.: 08-101
    Date: 26 September 2008
    Military Department: Navy
    (iii) Description: On 26 September 2008, Congress was notified by 
Congressional Notification Transmittal Number 08-101, of the possible 
sale under Section 36(b)(1) of the Arms Export Control Act (AECA) of 
eighty (80) Link 16 Multifunctional Information Distribution System/Low 
Volume Terminals (MIDS/LVT-1) to be installed on Kingdom of Saudi 
Arabia Typhoon aircraft, data transfer devices, installation, testing, 
spare and repair parts, support equipment, personnel training, training 
equipment, contractor engineering and technical support, and other 
related elements of program support. The estimated cost was $31 
million. Major Defense Equipment (MDE) constituted $30 million of this 
total.
    This transmittal reports the addition of seventy-six (76) Link 16 
MIDS/LVT-1 to be installed on Saudi Arabia's Tornado aircraft, SAAB 
2000 Erieye Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) aircraft, and 
Tactical Airborne Surveillance System (TASS) aircraft data transfer

other related elements of program support. This notification will 
result in an increase in major defense equipment (MDE) of $30 million, 
for a total estimated MDE value of $60 million, and a total overall 
value of $61 million.
    (iv) Significance: This notification is being provided to increase 
the quantity of MIDS/LVT-1 on platforms other than those notified in 
Transmittal number 08-101 on 26 Sep 2008. The expansion of MIDS to 
other platforms continues a modernization program that has been ongoing 
since 2008. Overall, the ability for these additional platforms to 
support Link 16 operations provides added interoperability with U.S. 
forces and for conducting coordinated operations.
    (v) Justification: This sale will contribute to the foreign policy 
and national security of the United States by helping to improve the 
security of a friendly country that has been, and continues to be, an 
important force for political stability and economic progress in the 
Middle East.
    (vi) Date Report Delivered to Congress: 05 Oct 2015.
