 | Historically, U.S. security assistance programs in Bolivia have had similar objectives to those in many other countries, i.e., to provide the armed forces with surplus or outdated U.S. equipment through grants or credit purchases. In the past, the Bolivian Army obtained jeeps, trucks, 75mm howitzers, and personal weapons (M-1, Colt 45, etc), while the Air Force (FAB) received aircraft such as the C-47, C-54, and F-86F. The FAB also had ... |
