Transmittal No. 18-0D

REPORT OF ENHANCEMENT OR UPGRADE OF SENSITIVITY OF TECHNOLOGY OR 
CAPABILITY (SEC. 36(B)(5)(C)), (AECA)

    (i) Purchaser: Government of Norway
    (ii) Sec. 36(b)(1), AECA Transmittal No.: 13-68
    Date: December 18, 2013
    Military Department: Air Force
    (iii) Description: On December 18, 2013, Congress was notified by 
Congressional certification transmittal number 13-68, of the possible 
sale under Section 36(b)(1) of the Arms Export Control Act of C-130J 
technical, engineering and software support; software updates and 
patches; familiarization training for the Portable Flight Planning 
System (PFPS) and Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS); spare and 
repair parts; U.S. Government and contractor technical support 
services; and other related elements of logistics and program support. 
The estimated cost was $107 million, with no Major Defense Equipment 
(MDE).
    This transmittal notifies the extension of non-MDE support provided 
to Norway's C-130J aircraft sustainment program, including additional 
distribution support for unclassified and classified software. 
Extending the sustainment case will result in an increase in non-MDE 
cost of $123 million. The total case value will increase to $230 
million.
    (iv) Significance: The addition of this funding to Norway's C-130J 
sustainment program represents an increase in capability over what was 
originally notified. The proposed sale will allow Norway to continue to 
effectively maintain its current fleet of C-130J fleet.
    (v) Justification: This proposed sale will contribute to the 
foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to 
improve the security of a NATO ally. Norway intends to use this 
technical, engineering, and software support to provide successful 
operation of the PFPS and JMPS. This program will increase Norway's 
ability to contribute to future NATO operations, support U.S. national 
security interests, and strengthen a critical, long-term strategic 
military partnership.
