The proposed sale will modernise the Peruvian Air Force’s existing aging aircraft and improve its ability to support humanitarian assistance and disaster relief (HA/DR) efforts.
The sale will also enhance Peru’s efforts in conducting maritime interdiction operations as well as improving its counter-narcotics and counterterrorism capabilities.
