SUBJECT: FRANCE: BLUE LANTERN 3: POST-SHIPMENT END-USE CHECK
ON LICENCE 05-1001634 - ROCKWELL COLLINS FRANCE

REF: STATE 176592


1. (SBU) Per reftel, Post Blue Lantern Action Officer contacted
Rockwell Collins France regarding export license 05-1001634
involving the delivery of helicopter parts and communication
system components. The Department was concerned about the
excessive number of intermediate consignees. Rockwell Collins
Manager for Contracts Philippe Bardet contacted econoff by
letter on November 15.


2. (SBU) Bardet confirmed the delivery of helicopter parts under
license number 05-1001634 to IAR Brasov for final end use by the
Romanian Airforce. He noted that, within the Rockwell Collins
Group, Rockwell Collins France was responsible for commercial
relations with Romania, which is the reason that Rockwell
Collins France was the purchaser for the IAR Brasov.


3. (SBU) According to Bardet, Rockwell Collins France delivered
the products directly from the U.S. to Romania and did not take
possession of the goods. He confirmed, however, that the "Data
Loaders DL-8171" did not contain U.S.-origin frequency hopping
algorithms. Neither did they permit access to frequency hopping
algorithms nor the functions of ECCM/frequency hopping of the
USG. Finally, Bardet confirmed that none of the following was
released to any third-party entity: USG datalink message
standards/formats and Have Quick IIA and the USG version of the
SINCGARS.
