Chinese Industrial Espionage in 2010: Aggressive, Creative... and Relentless
0 comments Posted by queen at 11:26 AM
While the recently flaunted Chinese J-20 stealth fighter prototype caught the world offguard with a seeming quantum-leap in technological prowess, it's similarities to the Russian T-50 made it appear to have been produced with the Kremlin's help- and indeed it was.
But now we hear that back in the Balkans in 1999, when a USAF F-117 Nighthawk was downed by a SAM missile over Serbia, Slobodan Milosevic allowed Chinese agents to fan-out into the countryside to purchase or otherwise obtain pieces of the top-secret stealth fighter from villagers -some as large as a small car- to be sent back to China for reverse-engineering of the design and materials technology.
Milosevic even directly supplied captured US military gear to his allies in Beijing and Moscow for evaluation, likely benefiting the development of the Tupolev T-50, which is now set to be operational by 2014.
But military is not the primary focus for Beijing's spying activities, and the scale of the Chinese government's wide-ranging industrial espionage efforts are coming more apparent all the time. With the new French Renault case, three top executives of the company have been suspended for allegedly selling Renault/Nissan's electric car strategy to Chinese agents. Recruiting such foreign agents with no ethnic ties to China marks a change in their increasingly sophisticated and aggressive strategies- as does the large sums paid the French corporate traitors.
Beijing's protection of foreign intellectual property rights is notoriously lax, so maybe we shouldn't be surprised now that the government itself is involved in IP theft on a massive scale... not just for strategic applications, but to provide it's key export industries with competitive advantage. And as illustrated in the Google hacking, Chinese espionage also involves a mosaic of intelligence gleaned from the efforts of it's many cyber-savvy code-crackers.
There were twelve Chinese spy cases uncovered in the US last year... most involving commercial technology. But here in the dark, deep depths of the grim Obammunist era -where the president allowed a Chinese anti-American propaganda song to be played at a WH state dinner- it was probably too much to ask Barack Obama to bring up these illegal, bad-faith attacks on the United States with Hu Jintao... even between bows.

The Russians Provided China with Stealth Technology Employed in the J-20 Fighter
0 comments Posted by queen at 10:54 PMHow's that reset button working-out, Barry?
According to a senior US lawmaker, the Russians provided China with the stealth technology they're now rolling-out for all the world to see... great. Add this to their new anti carrier missiles, and it's just like Dick Cheney warned us about... they're plainly going after the pillars of US military superiority, namely stealth aircraft and a blue-water Navy. This is the same Kremlin that Obama is so anxious to do arms deals with... in the name of bringing us peace!
Instead of viewing China as the enemy they clearly see themselves as -how else to explain firing missiles off the California coast- Obama has basically surrendered already, financially and otherwise... and really for no reason but the Dems' profligate spending habits that most Americans reject.
Some already consider the J-20 superior to the single engine F-35 we're developing... the more competitive F-22 has already been cancelled by Obama because it had "no peers"... like you'd want that, good grief. And what possible excuse for denying Israel... who were ready to order dozens on the plane... proliferation? Too late now...
And well done, because now we've got one... with the Russian T-50 also on the way. For these and other reasons, the House Armed Services Committee is more than a little bit worried about Obama's ongoing defense cuts...
China got the technology for its first stealth fighter jet from Russia, a senior US lawmaker said Tuesday, one week after the airplane apparently made its maiden flight.
"My understanding is that they built it on information that they received from Russia, from a Russian plane, that they were able to copy," House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon told reporters. McKeon, a Republican, said he hoped to "hear more" on the issue from Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who was on a visit to Beijing when Chinese state media published photographs of the J-20 fighter in the skies over southwestern China.
According to the reports, which cited witnesses, the next-generation war jet -- the existence of which highlights China's drive to modernize its military -- made a 15-minute test flight before landing. The lawmaker, who had been asked whether Beijing had obtained the technology needed to build such an advanced fighter from cyber-espionage, also stressed that "China's a concern" for US national security.
"We need to be looking at China, we need to be looking at North Korea, we need to be looking at Iran," said McKeon, who has given a skeptical greeting to Gates' plans for reductions in US military spending.
"That's what really concerns me when I look at the cuts, the potential cuts, that they're talking about for the defense budget. This is not a safe world," said the lawmaker.
...experts say that the pictures were in the neighborhood development center in western China taken in stages, which they consider one of the last steps before the first flight of the machine....
So far the only fully operational "invisible" fighter in the world belongs to the U.S. Air Force, and the machine's the F-22. Daily also noted that the images leaked just days before the planned visit of U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates in Beijing...
The Chinese government did not publish the photos-. Deputy Commander of the Chinese Air Force General, Che Wei-Zung, but said tests "invisible" airplane has before. He said that the machine will be deployed in eight to ten years. Until now, there was no evidence that the aircraft actually exists...
Chinese prototype according to the Washington expert on the Chinese military, Richard Fisher looks "superior to an American F-35", which the U.S. decided to give priority to the F-22, which is larger and more expensive. J-20 aircraft as the F-22, two engines and is roughly the same size. F-35 has only one engine.
F-35, Americans should have out around 2014.

An unofficial Chinese site has pictures of a Chinese stealth fighter said to be as invisible to radar and/or infrared sensors as an American F-22 Raptor...
...there are also opinions that it is just a dummy.
But other experts say that the pictures were in the neighborhood development center in western China taken in stages, which they consider one of the last steps before the first flight of the machine....

... interested in all this is Japan, who's considering buying F-35s and India, which last month the Russians agreed to the joint development of "invisible" airplane.
However, the Russians already have such a machine. Sukhoi T-50, which Russian engineers have developed since the 90s, made its first flight a year ago.
The operation is to be the fifth-generation Sukhoi deployed within four years, will replace the MiG-29 and dry Su-27. Russian Air Force is currently preparing a second prototype test flights...
