五角大楼发现f35中有未经授权的来自中国的磁铁零部件,已停止接收新的f35

五角大楼在f35战机中发现了来自中国的无授权磁铁部件,现已停止接收新的f35战机。
洛马把锅甩给了霍尼韦尔,霍尼韦尔说该部件对战机品质没有影响,但以后将会使用替代品来满足客户的需求。
不知道这波ChiNa是掌握了什么核心科技。但是我猜可能跟里面的稀土成分钴和钐有关,也许霍尼韦尔是考虑到成本因素才使用“国产替代”?还是说伟大ChiNa又有了一个可以卡美国佬脖子的技术?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) — The U.S. Pentagon has stopped accepting new F-35 jets after it discovered a magnet used in the stealthy fighter’s engine was made with unauthorized material from China, a U.S. official said on Wednesday.

An investigation that gathered steam in mid-August found that an alloy in the engine’s lubricant pump did not comply with U.S. procurement laws that bar unauthorized Chinese content, said Pentagon spokesperson Russell Goemaere.

Goemaere confirmed the magnet does not transmit information or harm aircraft, and that there are no risks involved.

Lockheed Martin, which manufactures the jets, said “the issue is related to a magnet on the F-35 Turbomachine manufactured by Honeywell that includes cobalt and samarium alloy.”

Honeywell International, which makes the pump, said it “remains committed to supplying high-quality products that meet or exceed all customer contract requirements.”

An alternative source for the alloy will be used in the future, the Joint Program Office said in its statement.

There are other Chinese-origin magnets on the jet that have received waivers from past Pentagon officials.
