AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of Defense to count projected demand for foreign military sales, including sales already in progress, when planning for the defense industrial base. This would apply to industrial base assessments, munitions production planning, sustainment planning for major defense acquisition programs, and decisions about increasing production rates and capacity for defense articles. In doing this, the Secretary would aim to expand production capacity, stabilize critical suppliers, and encourage capital investment in critical production lines.
