TITLE: training ammunition REQUESTING OFFICE: INL Interdiction/ Rural security Programs RECIPIENT: Colombian National Police

1. BACKGROUND

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is an instrumental leader in the development of policies and programs to combat international narcotics and crime. INL Bogota’s programs support two of the Department of States' strategic goals: (1) to reduce the entry of illegal drugs into the United States; and (2) to minimize the impact of international crime on the United States and its citizens.

In direct support of the INL Bogota training program, INL Bogota Programs will provide training ammunition to Colombian National Police Special Units that are responsible for combatting transnational narcotics trafficking, environmental crimes and other criminal activity.

Currently, the Colombian National Police do not have the quantity of training ammunition required to safely address its weapons training requirements. The ammunition requested is “frangible “ammunition which is used in training and due to its characteristics is not used in actual operations. This purchase is required to realize the Anti-Narcotics Directorate (DIRAN) and the Rural Security /Environmental Crimes Directorate (DICAR) sustainment training.

The frangible ammunition selected has been selected through extensive market research and consultation with police training academies.
