Amendment to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations: United States Munitions List

Résumé

This rule amends the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to remove from U.S. Munitions List (USML) jurisdiction certain quartz rate sensors when the sensors are integrated into and included as an integral part of a commercial standby inertial navigation system for use on a civil aircraft or exported solely for integration into such systems. Based on a case-by-case review, the Department will review requests to determine if a sensor is eligible for removal from the USML under this regulatory change. In such cases, the Department will provide the exporter with written confirmation of this determination and the export of the sensors will be under the licensing jurisdiction of the Department of Commerce. In all other cases, these items will continue to be covered by the USML and subject to State Department licensing.
