Features of the international legal regime for missile technology con

The massive development of missile systems and related technologies in the last decade of the 20th century has led to a collective effort to contain them. And therefore, by the end of the 90s of the twentieth century missile proliferation has once again become an important issue on the international security agenda whereas the effectiveness of the missile technology control regime has declined markedly. This article discusses in detail the existing legal regime for missile technology control, its achievements, advantages and disadvantages. This topic is a great relevance due to the danger of the proliferation of nuclear weapons, missiles and missile technologies, especially in light of the ongoing terrorist attacks around the world. When writing the article, methods of induction and deduction, historical-legal and analytical methods were used. The authors conclude that further efforts to tighten the regime are likely to require consideration of technologies associated with smaller missile systems that are regularly exported by regime member states to non-regime countries. The missile technology control regime is taking small steps towards missile non-proliferation, and we can see that most states are becoming committed to the idea of missile non-proliferation; the regulatory aspects of the missile technology control regime are increasing.
