November
1999: "The Government of Colombia has requested a possible sale
of 14 UH-60L BLACKHAWK helicopters (both armed and utility) with engines,
two spare T700-GE-701C engines, 28 GAU-19 .50 caliber mini-gun, 28 GAU-17
7.62mm mini-gun, 14 M265 2.75 inch rocket pods, ammunition, spare and
repair parts, tools and support equipment, publications and technical
data, personnel training and training equipment, Cooperative Logistics
Supply Support Agreements, and other related elements of logistics support.
The estimated cost is $221 million." -- From DefenseLink News,
November 10, 1999 <http://www.defenselink.mil/news/Nov1999/m11101999_m176-99.html>.
In
an unusual move, the Export-Import Bank of the United States may finance
at least $20 million of this sale. See Export-Import Bank, "Summary
of Minutes of Meeting of Board of Directors, November 22, 1999" <http://www.exim.gov/summary/nov99wk4.html>.
April
2005:
"Minister of Defense Jorge Alberto Uribe informed that Colombia will
buy eight 'Black Hawk' helicopters with light weaponry to strengthen the
army's operations." <http://alpha.mindefensa.gov.co/index.php?page=181&id=1737&PHPSESSID=e1275125f406069a327811a5839853d2>.
(All
figures in thousands of U.S. dollars. "**" means less than US500.)
