China has obtained military navigation technology from Boeing used on
advanced U.S. missiles and warplanes that was improperly approved by
the State Department, according to U.S. government officials.

Sure they can look at them under a microscope but can they learn to
fabricate them? Probably on their own merrits but the secret is not
the microchip gyros bu the technology to make them. Sounds like a
storm in a teacup and nothing like the sale or Elbit AWACS.

China is ascendant and will eventualy eclipse the USA technolically
and economically while the USA heads down its self chosen future of
global 3rd world ********.
