U.S. missile technology, fighter jet parts and other wartime equipment increasingly are being illegally smuggled to China and Iran.
In the last week, two Utah men were charged with trying to illegally sell parts for F-4 and F-14 fighter jets over the Internet to Canadian buyers. Iran is the only nation that still flies the F-14.
Additionally, Pittsburgh company SparesGlobal, Inc., was sentenced last week for lying about exporting equipment used in nuclear reactors and ballistic missiles in 2003 that ended up in Pakistan.
