Foreign Military Sales Essential to U.S. Defense

摘要

It is widely accepted that the foreign military sales process has a critical impact on U.S. national security. Our nation reaps the benefits from interoperability with foreign partners and the multilateral trust it builds. In addition to this vital role that foreign military sales, or FMS, play in our collective defense, there is another, equally compelling reason why it is critically important. Foreign military sales save the Department of Defense, and therefore the U.S. taxpayer, staggering amounts of money.
