Middle East provisions in the House version of the FY25 NDAA (base text)
HR 8070; Report
(published June 14, 2024)
This week the House took up HR 8070 (Report), the “Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY25.” After 2 days of consideration of amendments on the floor, the bill was passed 6/14/24 by a vote of mostly party-line vote of 217-199 vote (6 Democrats votes “yes”, 3 Republicans voted “no”). The base bill (as always) includes far-reaching Israel/Middle East provisions, which were added to by numerous amendments. Notably, Democrats elected to allow almost all amendments (which were brought to the floor in “en bloc” packages”) to pass by voice votes, rather than demanding roll call votes. Action now moves to the Senate – stay tuned.
From the funding tables at the end of the bill
- Israeli Cooperative Programs: $300 million
- Iron Dome: $110 million
- Arrow 3 Upper Tier Systems: $50 million
- Short Range Ballistic Missiles: $40 million

From the Report accompanying the bill
Support for Block 52 F-16 Fighter Aircraft to the Kingdom of Jordan: “The committee is aware of the importance of the Block 52 F-16 aircraft for the Kingdom of Jordan’s regional security and the advancement of the Middle East Air Defense regional security construct. Amid increased conflict in the Middle East, F-16 Block 52 mission capabilities are critical for the Royal Jordanian Air Force to continue flying alongside coalition forces. Therefore, the committee recognizes the importance of the Jordanian Air Force’s proposal to acquire Block 52 F-16 fighter aircraft.”
U.S.-Israel on Emerging Defense and Anti-Tunneling Technologies: “The committee recognizes the capabilities and solutions that the Irregular Warfare Technical Support Directorate (IWTSD) is providing the U.S. warfighter. IWTSD performs rapid research and development, advanced studies and technical innovation, and provision of support to U.S. military operations. IWTSD’s international program leverages the expertise and resources of partners and allies, on a bilateral basis with limited partners, to develop technologies and capabilities through innovative research and development. The committee commends the results from joint research investments from the international program. IWTSD’s international program has produced technological advances in subterranean capabilities and monitoring, counter-unmanned aerial systems, maritime security, and robotics. Many of these technologies have been applicable to the Israel and Hamas conflict. The committee encourages IWTSD to continue focus on emerging technologies, with strategic partners like Israel, to develop warfare capabilities to meet the challenges of the future, including but not limited to artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, directed energy, and automation. Therefore, the committee authorizes an additional $77.5 million for Combatting Terrorism Technology Support for U.S.-Israel research and development on emerging technologies and anti-tunneling cooperation.”
United States-Israel Anti-Tunnel Cooperation Enhancement: “The committee recognizes the critical importance of the United States and Israel jointly developing anti-tunnel technology to address the complex challenges of locating, mapping, destroying, and maneuvering through attack tunnels. By utilizing this technology since Hamas’ horrific attack on October 7, 2023, the Israeli Defense Forces have discovered over 1,500 new tunnel shafts built under community structures including hospitals, schools, and homes in Gaza including 350 to 450 miles of tunnels. The committee notes that the United States faces subterranean threats on the southern border with Mexico as well as in various operating locations around the world. The committee understands the benefit of this cooperation to enhance the Department of Defense’s ability to confront tunneling challenges posed by criminals, terrorists, and rogue states. To adequately support this effort, the committee provides an additional $30.0 million for United States-Israel Anti-Tunnel Cooperation.“
Bilateral Cooperation on Directed Energy Capabilities for Missile Defense: “The committee is aware that the State of Israel is developing a directed energy solution, known as Iron Beam, to complement the Iron Dome defense system and has requested U.S. support for future production activities. The committee continues to support incorporation of directed energy capabilities for air and missile defense, and encourages the Director of the Missile Defense Agency to explore opportunities to collaborate on the Iron Beam system with Israel, to include potential co-production.“
Iron Dome Production Capacity: “The committee notes that the Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2024 contained a significant amount of procurement funding to support the Iron Dome system. The committee is also aware of investments being made to expand U.S. industrial base capacity to expand co-production capacity in the United States, namely at the new Camden, Arkansas, facility. The committee encourages the Department to continue investing in expanding Iron Dome production capacity, to the maximum extent practicable, and to continue to identify opportunities to increase resilience and further expand production in the future.”
Review of Small Purchases from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea: “The committee notes that the Department, in implementing section 4872 of Title 10, United States Code (84 FR 72239), determined that the restriction on the acquisition of certain metals and magnets from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea should not apply to acquisitions below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, using the authority of section 1905 of Title 41. The committee is concerned that this exception may cause certain agencies of the Department of Defense, to include the Defense Logistics Agency, to source aluminum-nickel-cobalt magnets and other permanent magnets from distributors of Chinese-made materials using this exception. The committee is concerned that such acquisitions may undermine the defense industrial base. The committee therefore directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services not later than December 31, 2024, on the use of this exception to purchase aluminum-nickel-cobalt magnets and other permanent magnets from otherwise noncompliant foreign sources…”
Briefing on the Iranian Security Assistance in the Western Hemisphere: “The committee is aware of the required report on ‘Iranian military assistance to Bolivia, Brazil, and Venezuela’ described in Title XVIII of the Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 Conference Report. The required report has not yet been delivered to the House Committee on Armed Services. The committee expects delivery of the report as soon as practicable. The committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit an addendum to the report on ‘Iranian military assistance to Bolivia, Brazil, and Venezuela’ regarding Iranian military assistance to Cuba and Nicaragua to the House Committee on Armed Services not later than December 1, 2024. The addendum should address all required information in the report on ‘Iranian military assistance to Bolivia, Brazil, and Venezuela’ as it relates to Cuba and Nicaragua.”
Captagon Financing: “The committee is concerned with the utilization of the global trade in Captagon by the government of Syria and Iranian-supported terrorist groups to obtain financial resources to support the acquisition of destabilizing types and amounts of conventional weapons and other armaments. The committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the House Committee on Armed Services not later than December 1, 2024, on the Department’s efforts to work with other Federal departments and agencies to counter the Captagon trade in the Middle East, including: (1) a description of interagency or international efforts to counter the Captagon trade in the Middle East that include the Department of Defense and which include money laundering and financial networks associated with the Captagon trade in the Middle East; (2) how the Department of Defense collaborates with other U.S. departments and agencies and international law enforcement organizations to counter the money laundering operations employed by traffickers; and (3) any other matter the Secretary deems relevant.“
Hardening U.S. Bases and Naval Assets in the Middle East: “The Committee views United States military bases in the Middle East as vital for maintaining stability, conducting counterterrorism operations, and supporting partners in the region. These bases continue to face security challenges, including attacks by Iranian-sponsored militias and terrorist organizations and other hostile actors. Therefore, the committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services not later than December 1, 2024 on efforts to strengthen the force protection of U.S. bases and naval assets in the Middle East, the briefing should include efforts made to provide physical reinforcements, provide advanced surveillance technologies, strengthening access control points, and reinforcing critical infrastructure and facilities against potential attacks.“
Importance of Continued Defense Cooperation with the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan: “The Committee recognizes that the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan has been a long-standing ally of the United States. Jordan has been a long-standing critical partner of the United States providing stability within the Middle East and deterring adversaries within the region. The Committee commends Jordan for defense of its air space on the night of April 13, 2024. The Committee also recognizes the need for additional counter unmanned aerial systems within the CENTCOM region due to the growing threat from Iran and its regional proxies. Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Commander of U.S. Central Command and the Director of the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, to brief the House Armed Services Committee on any current and future plans to utilize existing authorities, including Section 333 under Title 10, to increase air defense for counter unmanned aerial systems in Jordan to protect United States and partner interests. This briefing shall occur no later than December 1, 2024.”
Iran-Backed Proxies in Iraqi Security Sector: “The committee remains concerned that elements of Iraqi state security under the umbrella of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces, incorporates some Iran-backed Foreign Terrorist Organizations like Kataib Hezbollah and Asa’ib Ahl alHaq, among other Iran-backed proxies. Therefore, the committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Secretary of State, to submit a report to the House Committee on Armed Services and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs not later than March 1, 2025, describing the extent of Iran’s influence on Iraq’s security forces, including elements of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces, and the United States Government’s engagement with the Government of Iraq to bolster the sovereignty of Iraq while limiting malign outside influence.”
Iranian Hardening of Nuclear Facilities: “The committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services by October 1, 2024, on Iran’s progress with respect to its nuclear program. The brief should include the following information: (1) The status of Iranian efforts to harden their nuclear facilities, particularly the new facilities in Natanz; (2) Kinetic and non-kinetic actions that could be taken against these sites by the United States, and our allies and partners in the region if deemed necessary; and (3) The status of any potential nuclear cooperation between Iran and Russia.”
Left-of-Launch Missile Defeat Capabilities: “The committee notes the Department’s ongoing investment in a spectrum of missile defense and defeat capabilities, including the development and integration of pre-launch, or left-of-launch, operations. The committee believes these activities play an important role as part of a comprehensive approach to addressing evolving missile threats and may have particular relevance to operations in the area of responsibility for U.S. Central Command. Accordingly, the committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services, no later than January 1, 2025, that assess the development of pre-launch missile defeat capabilities, including cyber or electronic warfare tools, related to missile threats posed by Iran and Iranian-linked groups.“
Report on Air and Missile Defense Munitions Expended: “The committee is aware that since October 7, 2023, United States forces in the Middle East have been employing air and missile defense capabilities to engage attacks from regional proxy groups supported by Iran, to defend U.S. forces in the region and ensure freedom of navigation. The committee is concerned about the potential impact these efforts may have to global inventory of these high-demand munitions. Therefore, the committee directs the Secretary of Defense, to submit to the House Committee on Armed Services a briefing not later than December 2, 2024, on the following: (1) the total number of air and missile defense munitions by type expended by each military service in the United States Central Command area of responsibility from October 7, 2023, to September 30, 2024; (2) the individual unit cost by type of air and missile defense munition and total cost for each type of munition expended by service during this timeframe; and (3) the assessed effectiveness of each type of munition employed against each threat system to include the number of munitions that did not successfully engage their intended target during this timeframe.”
Report on Iranian Aligned Popular Mobilization Forces: “The committee directs the Secretary of Defense, to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services not later than December 1, 2024, on the following: (1) determination if U.S assistance has been provided to or to the benefit of Iranian aligned Popular Mobilization Forces for training and professional military education, including through assistance provided to the Iraqi Ministry of Defense; and (2) whether such assistance has gone to the benefit of any person who is a member of a foreign terrorist organization designated by the U.S. Department of State, or any specially designated national designated by the U.S. Department of Treasury.“
Russian, Chinese, North Korean, and Iranian Defense Cooperation: “The committee notes the challenges to U.S. interests and security posed by cooperation between Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. The committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services not later than December 1, 2024, on the state of defense cooperation between Russia, China, Iran and North Korea…”
Active protection for the Abrams Main Battle Tank: “The Committee is concerned about the vulnerability of US Army ground combat vehicles to rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs), and other threats. Fighting in Ukraine and Gaza have further shown the proliferation of RPGs, ATGMs, and other threats to ground vehicles. Over the past few years, the Committee supported the fielding of active protection on four brigades of the US Army Abrams Main Battle Tanks and continued efforts in testing and fielding the system selected for the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle and Stryker. The Committee, however, is concerned that the Army has yet to develop a plan to field APS to additional BCTs of Abrams Main Battle Tank. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Army to develop a plan to procure additional APS kits for additional Abrams Main Battle Tanks and to develop a training plan for the APS system it has fielded. The Committee further directs the Secretary of the Army to provide a briefing to the House Committee on Armed Services by February 1, 2025, on their plan, including a schedule, to field APS to the rest of its Abrams fleet.”
