30 months in prison is nothing. It is like spitting in the face of our military. It should have been 30 years for falsification and putting our navy at risk.
Separate drop/related issue. But thank you for copying and pasting this here for an easy summary!
There’s a specific drop with a picture from a headline about the Japanese man in charge crying about it once their shenanigans came to light. I just can’t remember the words in the drop to find it on mobile…
These grades began at a very common type of steel known as A36, which has a yield strength of 36ksi (or kilopounds per square inch), and got progressively stronger -- all the way up to steels that had yield strengths of 100ks
They claim the steel was made in Luxembourg - the company that made it, however, is called Yawata Iron and Steel.
I also am inclined to believe that lack of sleep plays a roll. I remember only getting about 4 hours a night with 17% O2 levels while eating trash. But I never steered a ship. Also, that would play a convenient excuse for underlying issues. I've considered this concern before, but I was and am a small fish in a large ocean in the Navy. Soon to be an even smaller fish.
Wasn't there a Q post referencing purposefully using sub-par building materials for our US Navy fleet?
Yes. I can’t find it, but either Japan or Taiwan admitted to forging subpar steel and selling it to us anyway.
Was Japan. Said they'd been doing it for 50 years. Our entire infrastructure is compromised. Steel IS national security.
Didn't Trump say that we only had ONE steel company that manufactured armor steel plating in the US and we imported the rest from mills in Asia?
Kobe Steel.
Yes

Gets bigger.
Kobe Steel?

Yawata Iron and Steel became Nippon Steel. https://www.nipponsteel.com/en/company/about/history/
According to this Yawata was operating a Kobe Steel facility from 1966 to 1976.
WTC - The core complex was built between 1966 and 1975
What are the chances?
Remember all those Navy ships that were crashing into things? I'm thinking they were intentional and NOT accidents.
Were Chinese chips used to compromise the navigation, GPS, radar systems? Remote control, MK-Ultra sailors, attempts to provoke war?

We were also sourcing substandard steel from Chynah.
