A well-crafted Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request directed at the appropriate national defense authority would be an appropriate way to gain access to sensitive defense information. The request should identify the desired information, explain why it is needed, and provide assurances that the requested material will be handled responsibly and protected from unauthorized disclosure. Moreover, an FOIA also provides a process for resolving any disputes which might arise regarding denied requests.

Requesting permission from the country you are researching to access their sensitive defense information is the best way to proceed. You can formally approach them via diplomatic channels for permission and necessary assistance in obtaining the requested data.
