This joint resolution aims to prohibit a proposed foreign military sale of defense articles and services from the United States to the Government of Turkey. The primary purpose is to block the sale, which includes 40 F-16 fighter jets, various munitions (such as missiles, bombs, and related equipment), engines, radars, electronic warfare systems, and an extensive array of support services and equipment. The proposed sale would significantly enhance Turkey's offensive military capabilities. The resolution specifically targets Transmittal No. 23-07, which was submitted to Congress under the Arms Export Control Act, and it would impact the U.S. government agencies involved in the sale as well as the defense industry contractors participating in the deal.
