Sensitive Systems and Export Compliance
Three pieces on the controls that sit around sensitive equipment rather than around the sale itself: the certifications and releases an electronic warfare or identification system needs before an agreement can be offered, the escort and export filing rules that apply once classified materiel moves, and the sequence a compliance assessment visit follows from the annual schedule through to the corrective action report.
Three pieces in this topic
Electronic warfare and friend or foe systems
An EW sale carries a mission data file drawn from the EWIRDB, and an IFF Mode 4/5 sale needs AIMS certification of both the equipment and the platform.
02Escorting classified cargo and filing the export
A cleared escort travels with classified freight, the AES filing produces an ITN that must appear on the documents, and exceeding exportable value gets a shipment seized.
03Planning a compliance visit, and reporting a violation
A CAV is scheduled two years out, scoped at ninety days, notified formally at sixty, and answered with a corrective action report within ninety days of the report.
