Argentina signs deal with U.S. to buy four UH-60L Black Hawk helicopters for its army
Argentina’s Ministry of Defense signed a Letter of Offer and Acceptance with the United States for four UH-60L Black Hawk helicopters for the Argentine Army. The aircraft are being acquired through the U.S. Foreign Military Sales system and the Black Hawk Exchange and Sales Transaction program. Argentine officials put the negotiated cost at about $28 million, including spare parts and supplies. The four helicopters will form the initial core of a new tactical mobility capability, with roles including military transport, rescue and emergency response, and are intended to improve interoperability with partner forces.
