Importation of military artillery is governed by the Arms Export Control Act and typically requires a State Department import license or authorization under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). ATF may also have jurisdiction depending on the specific article. These are highly controlled transactions generally limited to government-to-government or authorized defense contractor channels.
The US schedule separates self-propelled artillery (9301100010) — systems mounted on motorized platforms capable of moving under their own power — from towed or emplaced artillery (9301100080). The distinction follows the physical configuration of the weapon system at the time of importation.
