A report for the Pentagon was released by Arlington, Virginia-based Govini, which in 2019 received a five-year, $400 million contract from the Pentagon to provide data, analysis and information on Department of Defense spending, supply chain and acquisitions.
The report also states that dependence on the Chinese supply chain is present on every major weapons platform, including US aircraft carriers.
It is separately noted that the current dependence on China cannot be resolved even in a decade. Because a “supply chain” at this scale is an entire economy, as it is a network of many firms that buy and sell from each other.

But did you know chinese-made cranes are a threat to Amerikkkan security? If you put 3 chinese cranes near each other, emperor Xi will command them to build a 100 meter-tall Mao Zedong robot that will steal all the flags, thus eliminating all freedom everywhere forever.
