Summary:

Congress has been concerned about the transfer of U.S. technology to Japan through the FS-X codevelopment program, under which the United States and Japan will jointly develop a fighter aircraft and six prototypes. This report looks at (1) the program's status, including cost issues and technology flow to the United States; (2) U.S. government and contractor controls over the release of F-16 technical data to Japan; and (3) the U.S. government's export licensing process for reviewing and approving the release of other FS-X military items to Japan.
