WASHINGTON: Pakistan wants to buy three P-3 maritime patrol aircraft and services valued at up to $855 million from Northrop Grumman Corp. and Lockheed Martin Corp., the U.S. Defense Security Cooperation Agency said on Friday.
In a notice to Congress about the possible sale, the Pentagon agency also said South Korea wants to buy $500 million in fighter jet spare parts and equipment, and NATO has asked to buy four Boeing Co. C-17 cargo aircraft in a $589 million deal.
In addition to Pakistan's planned purchase of P-3 aircraft, to be equipped with the E-2C Hawkeye 2000 Airborne Early Warning Suite, Pakistan also wants to buy $185 million worth of TOW 2A anti-armor guided missiles and related equipment from Raytheon Co., the agency said.
Under federal law, the agency must notify Congress of a potential sale of U.S. weapons to other countries.
