USA Might Sell JAVELIN Anti-tank Missile Systems to Bahrain The Defense Security Cooperation Agency notified the US Congress of a possible sale to Bahrain of JAVELIN anti-tank missiles as well as associated auxiliary equipment and services. The total value could total up to $42 million. Bahrain has requested a possible sale of 180 JAVELIN anti-tank missiles and 60 JAVELIN command launch units, simulators and other training equipment, spare parts, publications and technical data, personnel training and equipment, and other related elements of logistics support. The desert warfare missions of Bahrain's infantry and light armoured units require the protection afforded by the capabilities of the JAVELIN anti-tank missile system. The land forces of Bahrain are small, well-rounded, and multi-mission oriented. JAVELIN will provide the forces with a credible anti-armour defence that is critical to success in the desert. The proposed sale of JAVELIN is consistent with Bahrain's ongoing efforts to modernise its armed forces. |
