Arms Sales and Military Sales of the United States of America

 Collections from military sales to foreign clients totaled $ 9.7 billion, as recorded in the FMS Trust Fund trial balance for fiscal year 2001. Uncollected advances were $ 526 million.
 
Depending on the volume of completed contracts, new FMS cases executed, and various cyclical changes, the amount of payments and collections from year to year can fluctuate significantly. Therefore, spreads over 10% are normal fluctuations from year to year, based on performance. The amounts simply reflect the total payments and collections during the current fiscal year.

* Total military spending, which is the total of what has been spent on military operations, whether for the US army or within federal government institutions.
* The budget of the US army, which is the actual cost of the US Army minus the other financial mixes between it and the federal government institutions, referred to previously.

* The required cost, which is what the US military needs in terms of expenses, minus the revenues of the US military.
* The term “combined” refers to the net value after deducting or adding the value of government interventions. Therefore, a difference is observed between the value of the same branch in dividing the army’s budget by forces or according to spending, such as the military retirement fund.
