I’m sure some, if not most, of ‘their’ technology came from the E-3 that crash landed on their turf a few years ago...

I asked these questions when I joined the aircraft industry in the early 90s and never got an answer. How will foreign powers who steal our technology and designs ( the Russians at that time ) sell their aircraft on the open market? What about patent infringement?

The E3 didn’t crash land. It was hand delivered in almost perfect condition to the Chinese by Shane Osborn who later received a medal for it. A real hero (sarc)

I’m not familiar with what you speak and couldn’t find any incident with a E-3. As the Vice-Commander of Elf-One in Riyadh in the 1980s, things like this catch my eye. I thought the Navy had an E-2C down in China but couldn’t find that either.
