Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exporting American ideas, equipment, training and doctrine is nothing new and has numerous benefits for U.S. security interests. Two of the most recognizable benefits are U.S. access and influence. Since the end of the Cold War there has been an apparent shift in U.S. Government policy to sell more high-technology military equipment as opposed to the older, more obsolete, retired U.S. military equipment. This paper analyzes this apparent shift in government policy from two view points. The first premise is based on the idea of burden-sharing or coalition building. Supporters of this premise stress the need to insure that our allies are capable of carrying their fair share of the load in any future conflict. Thus, for an ally to adequately carry his share of the load in future conflicts, he must be equipped with state-of-the-art, high technology military equipment that is compatible. The second premise is that of preserving and protecting the U.S. defense industrial base. As U.S. defense spending continues its downward spiral, the Pentagon is unable to fully support its military industrial complex. Today, whether we like it or not, Foreign Military Sales procurements are the only purchases keeping many U.S. weapons production facilities open. Many feel that this is acceptable since the critical skills in the U.S. defense industrial base must be preserved and with reduced defense dollars, foreign military sales is the answer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research examines the status of the United States (U.S.) Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program within the context of the current ever-changing domestic and global security environment. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) analysis was used to analyze: the information gathered from the literature review; the importance of various players (domestic and international competitors, interests groups, decision-makers); and the general environment (global security and the economic environment that shape the National Security Strategy (NSS)). The study concludes that the U.S FMS program has evolved slowly because of the nature of the arms export business and the constraints imposed by the National Security Strategy. Recommendations for improving the FMS program are provided.

This book was released on 1998-12-01 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research is to investigate the impact that Foreign Military Sales (FMS) policy can have on the preservation of the Defense Industrial Base. A survey is utilized to gather information from five of the top ten defense contractors. This study concludes that FMS policy will continue to be shaped by U.S. foreign policy. The study identifies how the defense industry has been affected by recent drawdowns and it describes arms transfers as an instrument of foreign policy based on United States national security interests. Additionally, offset agreements are analyzed as a contributory factor to the globalization of the arms industry. The study also identifies strategies the Government and the defense industry should use to facilitate the preservation of the Defense Industrial Base. The study recommends the Government review, streamline and liberalize arms transfer procedures. The Government can maintain the Defense Industrial Base by actively and aggressively supporting industry in the arms transfer process.

Book excerpt: The Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program, a Defense Department operation that manages sales of defense equipment as well as services and training to allied governments, is becoming a source of increasing dissatisfaction for the U.S. defense industry and government customers trying to buy and sell weapon systems. From 1986 to 1989, the United States sold $29.1 billion of weaponry to developing countries through the FMS and general direct arms sales. During the following four years, which coincided with the end of the Cold War, the U.S. nearly doubled new sales agreements. A combination of factors is driving this aggressive campaign. The need to use FMS and direct arms sales as a National Strategy Shaper has been the focus in the past. However, economic imperatives, principally the desire to maintain the current arms industrial base is a major driver in acquisition decisions. In addition, FMS/arms sales is used as a vehicle to increase quantities, ultimately reducing the overall unit cost of critical weapon systems. This has slowly become the FMS and general arms sales emphasis. The overall goal of this paper is to examine the current FMS/ arms sales policy and propose a way of balancing FMS/arms sales as a "strategy shaper" and acquisition multiplier.

For the last seventy years, the sale of American equipment to partner nations has formed the foundation of many U.S. security relationships. Foreign military sales (FMS) represent a key tool in the American foreign policy that provides needed security assistance to partners and allies around the world. The sale of U.S. hardware bolsters the American industrial base. It creates thousands of high-paying, high skill jobs while reducing the cost of innovative technologies that keep the U.S. and its allies one step ahead of our enemies. They enable our allies to defend themselves and help forge strong bilateral bonds with the U.S. In 2016 alone, the U.S. sold $33.6 billion in military equipment and training packages. The FMS process, however, can be slow and complex, leaving partner nations and American industry frustrated. The FMS process is administered by the Defense Security Cooperation Agency and guided by the State Department. Congress has oversight of this crucial and sensitive program. This provides effective and transparent check on this key tool of U.S. foreign policy. Foreign military sales provide others countries with deadly weapons of war. The U.S. has negotiatied billions in FMS deals with Saudi Arabia, a partner in the war against the Islamic State and other radical groups in the Middle East. The U.S. must ensure that the countries to which it sells high-quality military equipment share our interests and values.
