Why it matters

Gross military-aid figures do not equal value ultimately reaching the foreign recipient because replenishment, U.S. manufacturing, and domestic capture can absorb a large share.

Current web-edition status

The publication keeps Total B open for these military cases rather than inventing a capture rate.

Status: Open

Raised in: Section 4 Section 5

Record required to resolve it

Program-level evidence showing what share of military-aid appropriations and obligations is captured in the United States versus reaching the foreign recipient.
