The US Defense Security Cooperation Agency has approved the Foreign Military Sale of an F-16 Air Combat Training Center to Jordan.​


Jordan-F16-238446.jpg



The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Jordan of an F-16 Air Combat Training Center and related equipment for an estimated cost of $60 million. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.

The Government of Jordan has requested to buy an F-16 Air Combat Training Center and Devices including full mission trainers, combat tactics trainers, instructor/operator stations, tactical environment simulators, brief/debrief stations, scenario generation stations, database generation stations, mission observation centres, and other training centre equipment and support; software and software support; publications and technical documentation; maintenance, spares and repair parts and services; US and contractor engineering, technical, and logistical support services; and other related elements of program support. The estimated total cost is $60 million.

This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security of a Major Non-NATO Ally that is an important force for political stability and economic progress in the Middle East.
The proposed sale will improve Jordan’s capability to meet current and future threats by ensuring Jordan’s pilots are effectively trained, which will contribute to the US-Jordan lasting partnership and ensure the country’s stability, a critical element to broader US regional policy goals. Jordan will use this asset to enhance training of pilots. Jordan will have no difficulty absorbing these training centre assets and simulators into its armed forces.

The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region. The principal contractor will be Lockheed Martin Corporation Rotary & Mission Systems, Orlando, FL. There are no known offset agreements proposed in connection with this potential sale. Implementation of this proposed sale will require the assignment of two US Lockheed Martin contractor representatives to Jordan for a duration of two years to support training. There will be no adverse impact on US defence readiness as a result of this proposed sale.

This all looks impressive, but had Jordan been in any war ever ?

Help me with this, Global firepower is a bullshit ranking when it ranks the US number one ?
It's good if you want the raw numbers. However it doesn't account for quality of equipment, skill of soldiers or power projection capability (e.g. Israel has indisputably the best military in the Middle East however it can't march over to Iran and invade). The US has the mightiest military in the world in all regards except manpower, this doesn't mean that it can steamroll any country it decides to declare war on. The US has only been picking on low hanging fruit in regards to foreign policy in recent years (Iraq, Libya, Syria etc), if they were to declare war on a more powerful state such as Iran, the results wouldn't be pretty for them.

I'm just trying to have an idea on how Jordan ranks in the Mideast region, and you gave me no answer.
Well Jordan has the best disciplined(the English school) military of all Arab countries but lacks the modern equipment.
80 modern Leclerc tanks,44 F-16As(older model),no Navy.
How would you rank Jordan?

9) United Arab Emirates
8) Iraq
7) Morocco
6) Syria
5) Saudi Arabia
4) Iran
3) Egypt
2) Israel
