America, Not Always First.

Abstract

The study examines the United States Government policy to sell military services and hardware under the Foreign Military Sales Program. The paper discusses the mechanics of foreign sales, the statutes and policies affecting them, and views of people working from the US State Department down through Project levels for three US Army Missile Command Systems: Improved HAWK, DRAGON, and TOW. Finally, there is a discussion of what economic benefit the US derives from foreign sales and a guarded forecast of what the future portends.
