China supplying Israeli Drones to Pakistan: Israeli expert
Hindustan Times ^

Posted on 03/13/2003 6:22:16 PM PST by DeaconBenjamin

China is supplying Israeli designed Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) to Pakistan, a top Israeli defence expert has said.

In an interview to Izvestia daily, Israeli Defence expert Zvi Goldfarb said Israel has supplied $300 million worth of UAVs to India which were widely used by New Delhi in its face-off with Islamabad.

However, China, which bought the drone technology from Israel, is supplying them to Pakistan for its use against India, Goldfarb said.

According to him, Israeli drones were the best in the world and have been used in almost all the recent military conflicts across the globe, including the Indo-Pak face-off when both sides widely used them.

At least Israel "sold" China the technology.

Here in the good 'ol US of A, we sell politicians and CEOs who in turn give Chinese the technology and then reward them further by giving the Chinese military IMF grants to help them build there own there.
