Book excerpt: The U.S. government exports billions of dollars of defense articles and services annually to foreign entities, generally through direct commercial sales (DCS) from U.S. companies under licenses issued by the State Dept. or through the DoD Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program. This report: (1) identified the magnitude and nature of defense articles and services exported; and (2) assessed information currently reported on defense exports and any gaps and limitations in defense export data. To conduct this work, the report analyzed export data from DoD for FMS and the Dept. of Commerce's U.S. Census Bureau for DCS for 2005 through 2009. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find report.
