Another spy.

And while we were all watching the Fitzgerald/Libby saga yesterday, this hit the press.

HONOLULU — An engineer who called himself the father of the technology that protects the B-2 stealth bomber from heat-seeking missiles has been arrested and accused of selling military secrets involving the aircraft to a foreign country, the FBI said. .....

According to an affidavit filed Wednesday by the FBI, Gowadia marketed himself to foreign officials and other foreigners as the “father” of the B-2’s unique infrared suppressing propulsion system. .....

The FBI said Gowanda admitted during questioning that he provided classified information to about eight countries.


Okay, let's play the game. Who makes military planes? Russia, China, France, Israel, India, Japan.... Could this have gone to someone seeking to cuircumvent the stealth technologies? A hundred billion in research down the toilet.
