US Navy buys fake Chinese chips

Chinese

Came across this doozie of a story where a US Navy contractor bought 59,000 microchips from China because they were cheaper, but it turned out they had a backdoor in them.

I guess the US has never had to worry about this type of thing before like the rest of us.
