Guess I can’t get away from writing about Chinese military aggression after all. The World Tribune today reported that two new Chinese Navy destroyers feature highly sophisticated missile technology stolen from the United States Military via industrial espionage.

China’s military put its new guided missile destroyers on display last week, disclosing its two new warships that are equipped with Aegis-type battle management systems.

Two new Luyang II guided missile destroyers are part of China’s naval buildup.
The two Luyang II guided missile destroyers are Beijing’s first Aegis-type ships. The ships are currently undergoing sea trials.

U.S. intelligence officials say China stole the technology for the Aegis battle management system by setting up a front company in the United States that became a subcontractor for the Aegis system manufacturer.

The four warships are part of China’s military buildup that U.S. officials say is designed for more than just a Taiwan conflict. The Chinese are building a deep-water navy able to project power, especially against the United States. [emph. mine]

Dammit, Max! You forgot to add industrial spying to your list of “Unrestricted Warfare” weapons. (db)
