This memorandum is a notice to vendors and contractors from the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center regarding unmarked engineering data and export control requirements.

The memorandum addresses drawings and engineering data that lack distribution statements and export control markings. Any unmarked drawings in the referenced data set should be treated as bearing Distribution D classification, restricted to DoD and U.S. DoD contractors only, effective February 2, 2022. The document contains technical data subject to export control restrictions under the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22, U.S.C., Section 2751) and the Export Administration Act of 1979 (Title 50, U.S.C., Appendix 2401). Violations of export laws carry severe criminal penalties, including up to two years imprisonment and fines of $100,000 or more under ITAR, and fines up to $100,000 or five times the export value, or imprisonment up to ten years, under EAR. The memorandum requires qualified U.S. contractors to prohibit unauthorized dissemination of the information and warns that violations may result in contractor disqualification for future Department of Defense contracts.
