US investigates diversion of F-35 parts to Hong Kong
Original: US investigates after F-35 parts diverted to Hong Kong
US authorities have opened an investigation after components for the F-35 stealth fighter were reportedly diverted to Hong Kong, raising concerns that sensitive military technology could reach China. Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are pressing for answers on how the parts ended up there and what it reveals about gaps in export controls on advanced US defense hardware.
Why now: The possible transfer of sensitive F-35 components near China has triggered a congressional and federal investigation into US export-control failures.
