The Chinese are notorious for trying to copy US military hardware.  They're the ones who bought the tail rotor of the crashed stealth blackhawk from the Paki's.

its what they do, they bought some of our CNC machining centers and were trying to copy them last time we had a tech over servicing them... However our flexible conversational software is where a lot of our speciliaty lies so they werent going to get far just copying the machine itself. Im sure its not hard to copy the software, but since the machine itself only houses a small part of the software, they dont have access to much of the actual stuff... just the interface.

according to the article they could have gotten their hands on a downed helicopter from Iraq, or had Egypt sell them one...

Sadly, this is like Hasbro re spraying GI Joe toys (with minor differences) as Cobra toys and calling them different..

its what they do
NO, IT'S WHAT WE DO...  WE set up China with the world's strongest manufacturing infrastructure and WE screwed our own citizens to hook up a communist state hostile to us in the processes.  This crap has been happening since the 90's and we've been led to believe this was in the best interest of America on behalf of the stupid backstabbing corporations who profited from it. They're all freaking guilty of treason imo....

True, we compromised ourselves due to greed...let me correct myself, American corporations have compromised America (like they care) thru their own greed.

I think we have already found our next "bogeymen". Corporations birthed by America.

Good post,

Some have been yelling WTF for years all across the net and ignored over this.  ASSHOLES Fighting for the liberty of the corporation while at the same time not realizing they are pretty much screwing their own country and people in the process.  But hey, their stock went up in the process so it works for them, screw America in the process. ::)

what can we do about it? Im so fucking sick of politicians and their bullshit. ... they have us by the nose ajd we know it.

hell my company is a small privatley owned american mfg company with a specific focus and the chinese  are trying to copy our shit.... its so out of control now how the fuck are we going to reverse it when no one here gives a shit?

Our owner is actually worried that a cheap knockoff of our products will start sbowing up globally as 2/3rds of our sales are international.

I'm not a big fan of what the big bankers and major corporations have done in the last couple decades.  Not fucking cool.  They have created most of this mess for their own benefit and endangered real true hard working Americans in the process.  It's our kids who will suffer while these scumbags skip off to some sanctuary after the damage is done. >:(

I truly think 90% of these huge corporatations see themselves above the country concept... the world is their mfg base and the countries are seen as their consumers. They go wherever they can make their product cheapest and sell it wherever they can for the highest margin.

for quite a while they, (major corporations) have had a bigger say with what happens in government than the people have.  That's an absolute fact.  They've gotten their way and that way has led to a lot of the crap we see happening today.  Do to this, we've pretty much built up our own enemies like China... big time as Cheney would say. 

Sorry, that's just the real facts of the matter.

Of course, their argument is that the American public was/is able to buy cheap good...but at what price? Short term convenience vs long term economic stability?

oh yea, I know what you're saying and so far we have it geared up to benefit the Chinese.  There is almost no legal recourse against Chinese companies ripping you off and putting you out of business no matter what patents or copyrights you hold.  And our own government seems to be fucking fine with the Chinese ripping off Americans like that. That's the impression I'm getting.

Our only consolstion is that they cant seem to be able to make a functional copy of any military tech without it falling apart.
