Iran Arms Sales: DoD's Transfer of Arms to the Central Intelligence Agency

Abstract

This report provides information relevant to your inquiries into the facts surrounding the U.S. arms sales to Iran. It specifically addresses the Department of Defense's (DOD) transfer of 2,008 TIJW missiles and 3,976 Hawk spare parts to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) pursuant to the January 17, 1986, presidential finding. The appendix presents the detailed results of our review. We recommend that DOD adjust its billing to the CIA to reflect the conclusions in this report. In addition to adjusting the prices for items already transferred, we also recommend that DOD obtain reimbursement from the CIA for any costs to reconvert missiles which had been modified for shipment but not sent.
