CHINA QUIETLY ARMING IRAN WITH TECH TO COUNTER U.S. STEALTH AIRCRAFT AND INTELLIGENCE

Beijing is reportedly providing YLC-8B radar systems that can track F-35s and B-2 bombers at long range. They’re also pushing Iran to ditch GPS for China’s BeiDou satellite system to prevent U.S. tracking of targets inside the country. The MSS is urging Tehran to replace all U.S. and Israeli software with encrypted Chinese systems that are harder to penetrate. China won’t fight alongside Iran. But they’re making sure their $400 billion investment and their largest oil supplier doesn’t go down easy. Twenty to thirty percent of global crude flows through the Strait of Hormuz. Washington is moving carriers into position. Beijing is uploading countermeasures just in case. Source: The Cradle
