The assessment of the Chinese state as hostile towards Western nations is key in understanding why Huawei is considered a risk.
This means parts made in the UK are put on F-35 jets flown by the US, Japanese, Norwegian, Italian and other militaries. Describing its involvement in the aircraft programme, the MoD publication said:"Gloucestershire-based Exception PCB manufacture the circuit boards that control many of the F-35's core capabilities."
"Exception PCB produces bare circuit boards and as a result there are no risks associated with their product in the F-35 aircraft supply chain," he said.Lockheed Martin, however, signalled there could be a limited risk. He said he thinks it is possible for a company that buys another firm to glean details of what the circuit boards on its acquisition's order books might be used for even if - as in the case of Exception PCB - it is simply bare circuit boards for the F-35.
An industry source said a delegation from GE Aviation was due to visit Exception PCB's Tewkesbury headquarters this week in the wake of Sky News asking questions about its Chinese ownership even though this had been known when the takeover happened.
This should be fun...
We need to cancel this, halfwit inbreads.
You have Russians out there killing assasinating people in broad daylights. Chinese stuff are the least of Your worries. + There ain't shit to be stolen
Nothing surprises me, China will build a replica within a year, another Huawei farce !!
Gee what could possibly go wrong there?
That’s fine as to my knowledge Trump doesn’t have shares in any aircraft manufacture
'but more, much more than this, I did it Huaaaaawei'
Sounds like a James Bond villain plot.
As I understand, its basic empty boards and materials sourced from China. Not finished hardware.....looks like a non story!
well its not top secret any more
They’ll all inexplicably change course if the approach South East Asia.
Is going to tweet this story several times now (i.e. spamming) because of the comments this story receives?
The F-35 is one of my particular favourites, could I order 2 please for the end of August as I have an important mission to take care of in Wimborne..curious_twitt CaptainCockfos1 Are you guys fans of the F-35 and would you like to buy one
That's been the argument with HuaWei & domestic tech ... so was the Trump Administration's objection just smoke & mirrors or do they just want these F-35 turkeys to work so they're willing to go to the best manufacturer for their parts?
the F-35 is not 'top-secret'. If it was, you wouldn't know about it. Stop sensationalising.
I feel another anti Chinese story coming up.
'This includes 'its engines, 'lighting, fuel' and navigation systems', it said. It's a good job that comma was there.
I have said for Years...that NO electronic part for our high tech fighters should be made outside the country but Especially from China...!!!
Don’t worry the Chinese are building the New Hinckley Point Nuclear Power Station......😱
Secret flaws? When F-35 stealth fighters climb at a steep angle in order to dodge an enemy attack, design flaws mean the plane might suddenly tumble out of control and crash. Versions: F-35 can’t accelerate to supersonic speed without melting the tails or shedding the coating!
What !! Is this serious
No wonder they have problems working
Well now the secrets out
What did they make, the ejector seats!
Wowww F-35 technology is under Chineese lookout soo the question is what parts are done by Chineese tech Çin teknolojisi F-35 uçaklarının bazı parçalarında kullanılıyormuş. Haberiniz olsun
Yeah coz that makes sense! 😳
