No name given for the Japanese company. Anybody know what Japanese company
might possess such capability? Mitsubishi comes to mind. They have
divisions
that are involved in nearly everything.

According to the report on the IAEA website some 20 centrifuges
were supplied pre-assembled and parts for another 200 were
supplied by an unnamed foreign supplier.

They further state that they had ordered 10,000 centrifuges
similar to an advanced European design and that parts for
some of these had been seized aboard a freighter at a northern
mediterranean port in October 2003.

They also managed to get documentation related to nuclear
weapon fabrication and design from a foreign source,
(presumably Pakistan)

The investigation of these foreign suppliers is aparently
proceeding and a statement is scheduled for June.

Watch this space.
