Mexico To Buy Three UH-60M

The US State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to Mexico for UH-60M Black Hawk Helicopters.
The Government of Mexico has requested a possible sale of three UH-60M Black Hawk helicopters, six T700-GE-701D Engines, six H-764G Embedded Global Positioning System/Inertial Navigation Systems (EGIs), six M134 7.62mm Machine Guns, three Star Safire III Forward Looking Infrared Radar Systems, three Aviation Mission Planning Systems, twelve AN/AVS-9 Night Vision Goggles, and one Aviation Ground Power Unit. Also included are spare and repair parts, support equipment, communication equipment, facility construction, air worthiness support, publications and technical documentation, personnel training and training equipment, warranties, U.S. Government and contractor technical, engineering, and logistics support services, and other related element of logistics and program support.
The sale of these UH-60M helicopters to Mexico will significantly increase and strengthen its capability to provide in-country airlift support for its forces engaged in counter-drug operations.
The principal contractors will be the Sikorsky and General Electric Aircraft.
