Yesterday, 13 June 2024, was the one year anniversary of the DoD Tiger Team's Recommendations "To Optimize Foreign Military Sales." Maybe I missed the follow-up, just like I missed the follow up to the Dept of State 18 May 2023 "FMS 2023: Retooling Foreign Military Sales for An Age of Strategic Competition." But that's OK, I'm sure the Congressional FMS Tiger Task Force report issued 7 Feb 2024 will solve things...or maybe there will be another tiger team, blue ribbon commission, or "Vision 2030" published next year that talks about how critical the FMS process is to our partner, allies, and to U.S. national security. The U.S. cannot afford to keep talking about re-tooling of Foreign Military Sales process. We need real change and we need it NOW!
