Establishing an America First Arms Transfer Strategy

President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 14383 on February 6, 2026, to establish an "America First Arms Transfer Strategy." This strategy aims to leverage American military equipment sales as a tool of foreign policy while boosting domestic production and capacity. The order directs the creation of a prioritized sales catalog and streamlines processes across various departments to enhance the efficiency of defense sales. It also establishes the Promoting American Military Sales Task Force to coordinate these efforts and improve accountability and transparency in arms transfers. The strategy focuses on reinforcing the U.S. defense industrial base and supporting allies who invest in their own defense capabilities.
