Question Patch management dilemma

I've inherited about 10 RHEL 3 boxes that are located in Europe behind a corporate firewall with no access to rhn.redhat.com

I've been tasked with patching all of these systems but I ask, Does redhat issue patch bundles? In AIX, there are maintenance levels and Sun has patch clusters available for download. This doesn't appear to be the case with Redhat. I'm looking to just perform one download all of the updated rpms and have them applied to the system, but without a connection to the internet, I don't see how that's possible.

Anybody have any insight on how to overcome this hurdle without spending hours downloading individual rpms?
