(SBU) On Monday 4, May Pol/Econoff and OSC Chief conducted a Blue
Lantern check on license 994633 to verify that defense hardware
exported to Senegal's Air Force was being used for the stated
purpose. Embassy Dakar can confirm that:
- 2 AN/ARC-182 (V) Radios sets were mounted in two mi-17
helicopters
- 1 AN/ARC-182 (V) Radios set was stored in the base's warehouse
Poloff and OSC chief can also confirm seeing 1 RT-1250A/ARC receiver
transmitter; 1 MT-4935/ARC mounting base; 1 C-12109/arc remote
Control; 1 Sensor systems S65-8282-34 Antenna; and 1 set of new
electrical connectors. Poloff and OSC chief verified that the

the items, has integrated them for appropriate purposes, and has
maintained effective inventory control on these items.
