Small Arms Only
Some transfers comprise equipment that is entirely covered by the 1997 UN
panel of experts definition of small arms and light weapons. In such cases the column
includes 'yes'.
In other cases the column includes 'no'. This occurs in two cases:
- if the material includes both SALW and other equipment (for example, if a
transaction were for 'machineguns and howitzers'); or
- if the description of the material does not specify whether it covers SALW
or not (for example, reports of transfers of 'ammunition').
