Jut reporting what I'm reading.

"major transatlantic defense contractor"

The site is a small independent source, but seems pretty well connected at times, on North Korea.

Thee source said a part called a "pressure transmitter", was recovered with a company logo

Would not be surprised. There was a small company buying wireless kink radios and shipping them under false customs papers out of the USA. They ended up in Iran and used in IEDs that were sent into Iraq.

It is a private, live streaming video feed from Texas.

Sometimes has good tips. Just repeating what I read there.

It is just a private feed.

Singapore Man Sentenced to 40 Months in Prison for Plot Involving Exports to Iran of U.S. Components

Lim Yong Nam, aka Steven Lim, 43, a citizen of Singapore, was sentenced today to 40 months in prison for his role in a conspiracy that caused thousands of radio frequency modules to be illegally exported from the U.S. to Iran, at least 14 of which were later found in unexploded improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Iraq.

The announcement was made by Acting Assistant Attorney General for National Security Mary B. McCord, U.S. Attorney Channing D. Phillips of the District of Columbia, Acting Assistant Secretary of Export Enforcement Richard Majauskas for the U.S. Department of Commerce, Acting Director Thomas D. Homan of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Assistant Director Bill Priestap of the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division. The sentence was issued by the Honorable Emmet G. Sullivan.

Lim was extradited in 2016 from Indonesia, where he had been detained since October 2014 in connection with the U.S. request for extradition. He pleaded guilty on Dec. 15, 2016, to a charge of conspiracy to defraud the U.S. by dishonest means. Lim will be deported upon completion of his sentence.

Lim and others were indicted in the District of Columbia in June of 2010 on charges involving the shipment of radio frequency modules made by a Minnesota-based company. The modules have several commercial applications, including in wireless local area networks connecting printers and computers in office settings. These modules include encryption capabilities and have a range allowing them to transmit data wirelessly as far as 40 miles when configured with a high-gain antenna. These same modules also have potentially lethal applications. Notably, during 2008 and 2009, coalition forces in Iraq recovered numerous modules made by the Minnesota firm that had been utilized as part of the remote detonation system for IEDs. According to the plea documents filed in the case, between 2001 and 2007, IEDs were the major source of American combat casualties in Iraq.

Depending on the depending upons...
Almost any large scale technological product is bound to have components made by any number of legit manufacturers. Things like nuts and bolts, resistors, capacitors, inductors, chips, diodes, and parts for hydraulic or gaseous materials handling are made by a very large global manufacturing base.

I don’t know what kind of “pressure transmitter” or “transducer” it might be, but it could be a commonly available part one could get from a stocking distributor or a manufacturer directly.

NASA doesn’t make their little fiddly bits — they buy components, and whole entire sub-systems and complete functional systems from a host of makers.

There is nothing necessarily “sinister” here.

Now, it COULD be some hyper-super “apace qualified” part, but just judging from the name, it sounds pretty prosaic.

Now the feed seems to have dropped the story.

Possible “disregard”.

It seems the [good guy] deep state that silently tracked zero’s high treason is now able to seine up their undetected dragnet they’ve been setting until/if the RATS ever fell from power.

Oh they’re apparently redesigning the page.

Now I see the story again.

IIRC, GE found to be supplying the Iranians with stuff, in violation numerous Federal laws.

Can't remember when, probably under Bush43.
