Spanish term or phrase: ingresos destinados a gastos de defensa
Text:

"En el artículo 8 del decreto-ley de la entonces Junta Militar de Gobierno, una de las consideraciones para su creación fue que “es conveniente consagrar un régimen legal que permita administrar las empresas nacionalizadas con flexibilidad y autonomía, indispensables para lograr los niveles de eficiencia requeridos para competir internacionalmente en el mercado del cobre y sus subproductos”; otro motivo fue para que el Gobierno contara con una apreciación global y completa sobre los negocios de dichas empresas (Decreto Ley 1350).

"Así, los militares se aseguraron el control estatal sobre los ingresos destinados a gastos de defensa en un momento de crisis económica; su base legal era la “Ley del Cobre” de 1958, que a fines de 1973 se reformó aplicando el impuesto sobre ventas al exterior y fijando un piso mínimo de 90 millones de dólares; más tarde se le introdujo una reajustabilidad según el índice de precios al por mayor de los Estados Unidos (FUENTE)."

In the above context "ingresos destinados a gastos de defensa" seems to refer to tax revenues / money collected and allocated for military expenditure, but my slightest doubt also has me considering other ways money is collected for such expenditure not via taxes - whether that nature exists, I have no idea.
