It's not just DVDs and CDs anymore
Chinese Bullets Found With Enemies In Afghanistan and Iraq
China's robust arms industry has been able to duplicate U.S.-made, armor-piercing rounds, and the bullets are being found with the enemy in Afghanistan and Iraq. Two government sources tell HUMAN EVENTS the sniper ammunition is sending alarm bells through the Pentagon as it hurries to keep pace by producing improved body armor for soldiers, Marines, airmen and sailors. The sources said the Chinese munitions are not thought capable of defeating the super-hard ceramic plates that now protect service members against smalls-arms fire, including armor-piercing bullets. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=29530

The only catch on the Ceramic plates is I saw on the Military Channel or Discovery Channel that the material is being made for us in China as we can't produce enough of it fast enough.

Was that the ESAPI plates, Equalizer?
It hardly seems likely that even the oxymoronic military intelligence-type bureaucracy would allow the sourcing of such sensitive materials & tech from China...
