For FMS purposes, the NSN gives a unique identifying number for each piece of equipment. Non-cataloged items can be occasionally purchased through FMS as well. However, the Department of Defense and the FMS procurement process rely heavily on the NSNs. 

Foreign customers may request a specific item using NSN. This is to ensure that the DoD procures exactly what they wanted. For the U.S. defense companies, having their products cataloged with NSNs becomes a great competitive advantage for international arms sales under FMS.
