SIPRI Yearbook 2011

Appendix 6B. The financial value of states’ arms exports, 2000–2009

Chapter:: 6. International arms transfers
Source:: SIPRI Yearbook 2011
Author(s):: Mark Bromley

Table 6B.1 presents official data on the financial value of states’ arms exports in 2000–2009. The countries included in the table are those that provide official data on the financial value of ‘arms exports’, ‘licences for arms exports’ or ‘arms export agreements’ for at least 6 of the 10 years covered and for which the average of the values given exceeds $10 million. In all cases, the ‘stated data coverage’ reflects the language used in the official publication from which the data has been extracted. National practices in this area vary, but ‘arms exports’ generally refers to the financial value of arms actually exported, ‘licences for arms exports’ generally refers to the financial value of licences for arms exports issued by the national export licensing authority, and ‘arms export agreements’ refers to the financial value of agreements signed for arms exports. The arms export data for the different states in the table is not necessarily comparable and may be based on significantly different definitions and methodologies.
