Hell, I figured the Chi-coms probably owned it already.

Isn’t it wonderful being dependent upon a communist country who still very much consider themselves our enemy?

I guess, in an emergency, the Marines could ask 0bama’s permission to take over the facility.

It is routine that when a foreign company buys a domestic concern the defense-related subsidiaries are sold off.

When I worked for B&W NPGD (before McDermott acquired them) back in the 70’s the Nuclear Fuels Division was a hot item. Got my firefighting training down there.

SONOBUOY PING!

How much scrap iron do we sell the Chinese? Just asking.

Click on pic for past Navair pings.

Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.

Much ado about nothing. The supplier of U.S. nuclear fuel is not McDermott, but it’s subsidiary Babcox & Wilcock which is headquartered in the U.S. so is subject to U.S. laws governing mergers and acquisitions. McDermott’s primary business seems to be offshore energy extraction which fits hand in glove with PetroChina’s business.
