The U.S. government has approved the sale of up to nine Boeing Co P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol planes to Britain.
经美国政府批准，9架波音P-8A“海神”海上巡逻机将向英国出售。
The U.S. Defense Department added on Friday that the deal is valued at $3.2 billion.
周五，美国防部称总价值为32亿美元。
The Pentagon's Defense Security Cooperation Agency, which oversees foreign arms sales, notified Congress about the potential sale on Thursday.
周四，国防安全合作署向国会告知出售计划，安全合作署对对外军售进行监督。
Lawmakers now have 15 days to block the sale although such action is unlikely given close ties between the United States and the UK.
目前，国会有15天否决时间，但因英美关系亲密，此举不太可能出现。
The proposed sale will enhance Britain's capabilities to provide national defense and contribute to NATO and coalition operations.
