Military equipment is sold to the PRC and mislabeled as COTS, i.e. civilian.

PRC = people republic of china

COTS = commercial off the shelf

?

Yes. One of the reasons why I left that company. I didn't want to help those piece of shit fuckers sink another vietnamese fishing boat. We made all the internals to the torpedoes and made up fake uses like "crop dusting planes component". That is a direct quote btw, from the salesperson who sold it.

JFC dude take a picture with your phone, erase the metadata, and submit it to your government. That's so unbelievably wrong.

Might turn into a nothingburger, if stuff like the Iran-Contra, or more recently the CIA and MI6 funding "moderate terrorists" are anything to go by.

If there's one thing they take seriously it's ITAR. OP should really make a tip off

I have no one idea how they wouldn't know. It's not like military contractors don't have conections to the military. When a big blackout hit the area the military brought us diesel to get the factory going again.

I don't work there anymore and I am pretty sure the US government knows. What with ITAR and stuff.
