US distributors are under an obligation to not pass along counterfeit parts. Demand better quality-control spot-checks by contractors, and impose heavy penalties on distributors who pass along bad parts, and parts purchases from China will stop. The company I work for produces military avionics equipment. We require all parts be traceable back to the manufacturer. We also have a very limited list of certified distributors that we buy from.
Counterfeit parts are a problem, but it is also being treated seriously by the defense industry.
