Belgium could soon place an order for AMRAAM missiles to arm the Air Force’s F-16 and F-35 fighter jets.
On Tuesday, the U.S. State Department approved the sale of AIM-120C-8 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM) and related equipment to Belgium for a total estimated cost of $380 million.
The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.
