💨 Abstract

The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a forfeiture complaint against two advanced flight simulators intercepted en route from South Africa to China. The U.S. alleges that the Test Flying Academy of South Africa, backed by the South African government, illegally exported U.S. military technology to China's military. The academy denies wrongdoing, asserting compliance with laws and standards. This action is part of broader U.S. efforts to prevent unauthorized transfers of military technology to strategic competitors.
