TITLE 22--FOREIGN RELATIONS AND INTERCOURSE
CHAPTER 39--ARMS EXPORT CONTROL
SUBCHAPTER V--SPECIAL DEFENSE ACQUISITION FUND
Sec. 2795. Fund
(a) Establishment; purposes; special requirements and responsibilities;
continuous orders for certain articles and services; articles
for narcotics control purposes
(1) Under the direction of the President and in consultation with
the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense shall establish a
Special Defense Acquisition Fund (hereafter in this subchapter referred
to as the ``Fund''), to be used as a revolving fund separate from other
accounts, under the control of the Department of Defense, to finance the
acquisition of defense articles and defense service in anticipation of
their transfer pursuant to this chapter, the Foreign Assistance Act of
1961 [22 U.S.C. 2151 et seq.], or as otherwise authorized by law, to
eligible foreign countries and international organizations, and may
acquire such articles and services with the funds in the Fund as he may
determine. Acquisition under this subchapter of items for which the
initial issue quantity requirements for United States Armed Forces have
not been fulfilled and are not under current procurement contract shall
be emphasized when compatible with security assistance requirements for
the transfer of such items.
(2) Nothing in this subchapter may be construed to limit or impair
any responsibilities conferred upon the Secretary of State or the
Secretary of Defense under this chapter or the Foreign Assistance Act of
1961 [22 U.S.C. 2151 et seq.].
(3) The Fund may be used to keep on continuous order such defense
articles and defense services as are assigned by the Department of
Defense for integrated management by a single agency thereof for the
common use of all military departments in anticipation of the transfer
of similar defense articles and defense services to foreign countries
and international organizations pursuant to this chapter, the Foreign
Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C. 2151 et seq.], or other law.
(4) The Fund shall also be used to acquire defense articles that are
particularly suited for use for narcotics control purposes and are
appropriate to the needs of recipient countries, such as small boats,
planes (including helicopters), and communications equipment.
(b) Collections in Fund
The Fund shall consist of--
(1) collections from sales made under letters of offer issued
pursuant to section 2761(a)(1)(A) of this title representing the
actual value of defense articles not intended to be replaced in
stock,
(2) collections from sales representing the value of asset use
charges (including contractor rental payments for United States
Government-owned plant and production equipment) and charges for the
proportionate recoupment of nonrecurring research, development, and
production costs, and
(3) collections from sales made under letters of offer (or
transfers made under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C.
2151 et seq.]) of defense articles and defense services acquired
under this subchapter, representing the value of such items
calculated in accordance with subparagraph (B) or (C) of section
2761(a)(1) of this title or section 2762 of this title or section
644(m) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C. 2403(m)], as
appropriate,
together with such funds as may be authorized and appropriated or
otherwise made available for the purposes of the Fund.
(c) Amounts
(1) The size of the Fund may not exceed such dollar amount as is
prescribed in section 114(c) of title 10. For purposes of this
limitation, the size of the Fund is the amounts in the Fund plus the
value (in terms of acquisition cost) of the defense articles acquired
under this subchapter which have not been transferred from the Fund in
accordance with this subchapter.
(2) Amounts in the Fund shall be available for obligation in any
fiscal year only to such extent or in such amounts as are provided in
advance in appropriation Acts.
