The estimated value is $250 million. This proposed sale will enhance the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States by helping to improve the security of a [[Page 34652]] strategic regional partner that has been, and continues to be, an important force for political stability and economic progress in the Middle East. The proposed sale will enable Saudi Arabia and the Royal Saudi Naval Force (RSNF) to maintain military performance levels and provide an increased ability to meet current and future maritime threats. The training will support the RSNF in its role patrolling and providing protection for critical industrial infrastructure and for the sea lines of communications. The RSNF will also use the training to enhance interoperability with the United States and other coalition maritime forces. Saudi Arabia will have no difficulty absorbing these services. The proposed sale of this training will not alter the basic military balance in the region. The prime contractor will be Kratos Defense & Security Solutions of San Diego, CA. There are no known offset agreements in connection with this potential sale. Implementation of this proposed sale will require the assignment of approximately 88 contractor representatives to Saudi Arabia for approximately three years to support personnel training. Implementation of this sale will not require the assignment of any additional U.S. Government representatives to Saudi Arabia. There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale. [FR Doc. 2017-15676 Filed 7-25-17; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 5001-06-P
