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

The memorandum addresses the proper classification and distribution of engineering drawings and technical data that lack distribution statements and export control notices. Any unmarked drawings must be treated as "Distribution D" material, restricted to DoD and U.S. DoD contractors only, with all other requests for the document referred to AFLCMC/LZPEF at Hill AFB, Utah 84056. The memorandum includes a formal warning that the technical data contained is subject to export restrictions under 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., Appendix 2401 et seq.), with violations subject to severe criminal penalties including imprisonment up to ten years and fines up to $250,000. Contractors must comply with DoD Directive 5230.25 regarding dissemination. The attachment provides detailed instructions for controlling export-controlled technical data, including provisions that unauthorized dissemination may result in contractor disqualification and ineligibility for future Department of Defense contracts.
