The novel Ghost Fleet, by Singer and Cole, had most current US military hardware compromised by Chinese chips. The chips were designed to shut down when they received a coded signal from the Chinese at a particular microwave frequency.

Not like any company that really gave a damn about security didn't know this was coming sooner or later. Some tech folks have been warning about this type of attack since the late eighties but who listened?

Not companies looking to reduce their payroll by shipping production overseas and not politicians who bow to the big bucks no matter what country those bucks come from.

The next shoe to drop is how much mischief H1B Visa employees have been up to on behalf of their native country.

I’m sure glad that OUR government never thought to do this to any of the EXPORTED military hardware we sell to other nations.
