Can BORK sell its armor to foreign entities? I heard they were in Colombia recently. I have accidently stumbled across something called International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) regulations which many of the US armor companies must adhere to. They (Riley Solutions) are claiming that they cannot sell their level 4 nanoenhanced armor outside the US. I know many of you have much more knowledge than me about this, what do you make of it?

here's a bit of description from wikipedia as well
For practical purposes, ITAR regulations dictate that information and material pertaining to defense and military related technologies (for items listed on the U.S. Munitions List) may only be shared with U.S. Persons unless authorization from the Department of State is received or a special exemption is used.[3] U.S. Persons (including organizations) can face heavy fines if they have, without authorization or the use of an exemption, provided foreign (non-US) persons with access to ITAR-protected defense articles, services or technical data.[4]
