By Andrew Clevenger and Aaron Mehta
WASHINGTON — The US State Department has approved five separate weapon sales worth an estimated total of $3.5 billion, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency announced on its website Tuesday.
The vast majority of the money comes from the potential sale of 17 V-22B Block C Osprey aircraft to Japan. The island nation officially selected the Osprey in December as its choice to fill a military tilt-rotor requirement laid out in its most recent National Defense Program Guidelines.
The sale would also include 40 Rolls-Royce engines, along with radars, sensors and night vision goggles — essentially the complete package to operate the Osprey.

The Osprey is highly controversial in Japan due to its reputation as an unsafe aircraft, a reputation earned after several public accidents in the early days of the technology that proponents say are no longer an issue. The announcement comes just days after the US and Japan completed a new defense agreement.
As with all sales announced by DSCA, the agreements are not final without congressional approval; assuming that occurs, the contracts will need to be negotiated by the interested parties.

The DSCA also approved the possible sale of an estimated $395 million of ammunition to Iraq.
