China
has developed its own version of the Patriot anti-missile system,
according
to a Chinese-owned Hong Kong newspaper. The ground-to-air guided
missile
system is part of China's air shield that is similar to U.S. Patriot
missiles, the March 29 Wen Wei Po reported.
China covertly obtained
Patriot anti-missile system technology from Israel
during the 1990s,
according to U.S. officials. U.S. intelligence agencies
discovered the
Israel-China Patriot technology transfer in March 1993.The
transfers came
from U.S.-made Patriots sent to Israel to counter Iraqi
missile attacks
during the Persian Gulf war. The report described the
system's command and
control system, vehicles and interceptors.
In 1993, then-CIA Director Robert
Gates told The Washington Times, “There is
some indication that they [the
Chinese] have some of the technology.”
