A new Pentagon report finds that banned Chinese parts have been making their way into Boeing B-1B bombers and and Lockheed Martin’s F-16 fighters, the Department of Defense reported.

A senior defense official who spoke with Reuters also believes Chinese titanium may have also ended up in the test version of a new missile, the SM-3 IIA, being developed jointly by Raytheon Co and Japan.
