#1 Great! Then the Israelis can pass this tech on to the Chinese. Our best friend, Israel is.

#2 Too bad about the Phalcon. Still, I'm sure it'll surface in a decade or so---as an original American product.

#3 I suspect the Chinese have already received much of the technology from AWACS (regrettably). We have our own defectors who have passed along our secrets for a price.

I can't think of a ally in greater need for this than Israel.

#4 You think the Gulfstream is cool, try the grits, boiled peanuts and peaches.

#5 Ten years ago, I might have agree with gromky. Now, after all the tech transfer to China in return for contributions to the DNC, I don't think as much of the possibility.

Plus, it's not impossible to design a system of your own. Maybe not as good as our top-flight marks, but then again, we gotten commuppances before. Remember our torpedoes in WWII?
