Official documents regarding "sales" by the US military
This is an interesting find, and I looked through alot of the documents..
http://www.fas.org/asmp/profiles/655-2002/6552002.html
The documents include all sales to the nations of the world of weapons, support, ammo, and other items by the United States military to other nations. It also includes "gifts" by the US to other nations (accepted or not)
Notice that two frigates were offered to Turkey (Yes.. Frigates, missile frigates to be exact)..
(Why dont they ever offer these types of things to me? I'd love a frigate or two)
This is for 2002.. Can't wait to see 2003.
Have a gander
