Bill Summary

Providing for congressional disapproval of the proposed foreign military sale to the Government of the United Arab Emirates of certain defense articles and services.

AI Summary

This resolution is a congressional measure aimed at blocking a proposed foreign military sale to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Specifically, the resolution prohibits the sale of military equipment detailed in Transmittal No. 24-118, which was submitted to Congress on May 13, 2025, under the Arms Export Control Act. The proposed sale includes six CH-47F Block II Chinook helicopters with advanced capabilities like air-to-air refueling and extended range fuel tanks, along with associated equipment such as sixteen T-55-GA-714A engines, fourteen GPS/Inertial Navigation System devices, eight missile warning systems, twenty communications security radios, and twenty M-240 machine guns. By passing this resolution, Congress would effectively prevent the U.S. government from proceeding with this specific military equipment transfer to the UAE, exercising its oversight role in foreign military sales.
