Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Sept. 29, 1999
Report No. NSIAD-99-231
Subject
Summary:

The United States has sold sensitive military items through the foreign military sales program over the years because the items are presumed by some to be better controlled by the programs than through direct commercial sales. The U.S. government relies on a complex process with many participants to determine which technology may be transferred as part of a sale through the program. The U.S. government has not established a process for ensuring that certain controlled items are fully and systematically identified when reviewing requests or approving agreements under the program. As a result of weaknesses in the review process, items controlled by an international missile nonproliferation agreement have been transferred under the program without proper review and approval. The Defense Department's proposals to reform the program now focus on reducing the time for making technology transfer decisions.
