🇨🇳🇦🇺 — BLOOMBERG REPORT: China Got F-35 Parts After UPS Shipment Diverted to Hong Kong
- China obtained sensitive F-35 components after a UPS shipment from Australia to the United States was diverted to Hong Kong.
- The cargo included a cockpit canopy and weapons-bay door from an Australian F-35 sent to the U.S. in May for inspection or repair. The Pentagon said it is trying to recover the parts. Analysts say even brief access could help China study the jet’s design.
