This is a Memorandum for Vendors/Contractors from the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Hill Air Force Base, dated February 2, 2022, addressing the handling of unmarked engineering data.

The memorandum directs that any drawings in the attached data set not marked with a distribution statement and export control notice should be treated as bearing the Distribution Statement D marking, which restricts distribution to Department of Defense and U.S. DoD contractors only, effective February 2, 2022. All other requests for the document should be referred to AFLCMC/LZPEF at Hill AFB, UT 84056. The document carries a WARNING regarding technical data whose export is restricted by the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22, U.S.C., Section 2751 et seq.) and the Export Administration Act of 1979 (Title 50, U.S.C., App 2401 et seq.). Violations of these export laws carry severe criminal penalties including up to 2 years imprisonment and fines up to $100,000 for ITAR violations, or fines up to $100,000 or five times the export value for EAR violations. The memorandum includes detailed liability disclaimers stating the Government assumes no liability for patent infringement, data accuracy, or losses from product manufacture or use. It also notes that if technical data will be used for commercial manufacturing, a license may be necessary, and the document should be included with any reproductions provided to qualified U.S. contractors. Questions should be directed to Vickie Inlow at vickie.inlow@us.af.mil or 801-777-6228. An attachment providing instructions for controlling export-controlled technical data is referenced but not included in this summary.
