Specific spare parts are seldom listed in the general arms agreements. While the list price of a weapon normally includes a certain quantity of spare parts, usually provision is also made in the general accord for a lump sum credit for unspecified spares. In the case of Iraq, this sum has ranged from 8% to 11% of the total value of its arms agreements with the USSR. In addition, spare parts often have been obtained under supplementary pro- tocols to service equipment purchased earlier. Occasionally such orders for spares have been con- cluded on commercial terms. 7. The USSR estimates that some 2% of the value of a piece of ground forces equipment will have to be spent each year to maintain it according to Soviet standards. One recipient of Soviet mili- tary aid, however, has estimated that the yearly costs of spare parts for maintaining Soviet artil- lery and tanks are 4% of the initial cost of the equipment. Spare parts for aircraft and naval equipment are much more costly.

Tables 1, 2, and 3 detail the export prices of Communist military equipment, ammunition, and military-associated equipment.* Prices were obtained from documentary sources covering about one-fourth of the roughly 130 arms accords known to have been concluded since 1955 by Communist countries with less developed countries. No differentiation is made between prices of new and used equipment. In those instances where several prices were available for a single item, the most recent price is given first. In most cases, prices are c.i.f. (cost, insurance, and freight) at the major port of the recipient country. 2. The variation in price for individual items reflects freight costs, preferential treatment, age and condition of the equipment, and the tendency for list prices to decline over time. The normal practice for preferential treatment to certain clients by the USSR is to give a grant-in-aid discount off the list price. Preferential treat- ment in this form has ranged from a grant-in-aid discount for the entire military aid package, in the case of Cambodia, to no discount in the case of India. About 40% of the $5.4 billion of military assistance extended thus far by the USSR has been aid in the form of grant-in-aid discounts. Costs of Spare Parts, Ammunition, and Support Equipment 3. Spare parts, ammunition, and support equip- ment make up a substantial part of any arms agree- ment. In estimating the total value of an agree- ment where only the composition and quantity of weapons are known, estimated weapons costs should be raised by an appropriate percentage to allow for the costs of associated materiel. The tabula- tion below shows the relative share of weapons versus associated materiel in the total cost of naval, air, and ground forces equipment under eight selected arms agreements. These specific agreements were chosen because each contained * These export prices, which are expressed in US dollars, bear no known relation to production costs, either in the producing country or in the United States. 3 - Approved For Release 1999 fO9-1IA-RDP79S01091A000200030011-5 Approved For Release 1999/09/08 ~79S01091A000200030011-5 Agreement __ Soviet-Iraq 1966 ($181 million) Soviet-Iraq 1961 ($113 million) Soviet-Iraq 1958 ($131 million) Soviet-Indonesia 1964 ($205 million) Soviet-Indonesia 1962 ($93 million) Czech-Cyprus 1966 ($1 million) Soviet-Tanzania 1966 ($2 million) Air Force Ground Forces Weapons Ammunition and Other Equipment Weapons Ammunition and Other Equipment Weapons Ammunition and Other Equipment 78 22 90 10 34 56 83 17 73 27 25 96 4 35 65 32 68 34 66 69 31 Soviet-India 1966 (MIG-21 Annex) ($51 million) 71 29 detailed annexes which delineated prices and quan- tities, not only of weapons but also of accompanying support equipment, ammunition, and spare parts. 4. Costs of supplementary equipment and ammu- nition have accounted for about two-thirds of the total value of ground forces equipment specified in each agreement. Associated materiel also has made up at least one-fourth of the total value of equipment for air forces, with the exception of an early Soviet-Iraq agreement. The non-weapons share of aid to naval forces also has been substantial, although varying widely from agreement to agreement. 5. Moreover, ammunition alone accounts for by far the larger part of the cost of artillery. As shown in the tabulation below, ammunition made up between 56% and 79% of the value of various artil- lery systems covered in Soviet arms accords. Ammu- nition makes up an even larger share of the cost of rapid fire infantry weapons and mortars. In a num- ber of cases, such agreements were followed by supplementary arms contracts which called for additional ammunition.

By mid-1969, more than $5.2 billion of this equip- ment, almost 90% of which was supplied by the USSR, had already been delivered, mostly under medium- term or long-term credit. This handbook, which updates CIA/RR, A.ERA 63-6, Exports Of Bloc Military Equipment To Non-Bloc Countries: A Catalogue Of Prices And Quantities, October 1963, SECRET/NO FOREIGN DISSEM, contains a comprehensive price list of exports of Communist weapons, ammunition, and support equipment contracted for delivery to less developed countries. As such it can be used to estimate with a fair degree of confidence the value of a Communist nation's arms shipment where only the quantities and composition are known. This handbook also provides information on the value of ammunition and spare parts likely to accompany a particular delivery of weapons. Note: This handbook was produced soZeZy by CIA. It was prepared by the Office of Economic Research and was coordinated with the Office of Strategic Research.
