US could ban F-35 from UK over Huawei 5G: US senator

[Aspen]

Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton has warned that the UK’s decision to allow Huawei to build aspects of its 5G network could block future deployments of American F-35s.

Cotton made the comments while giving evidence to Parliament’s Defence Select Committee during a hearing discussing the security of 5G. During the debate, the topic of how allowing Huawei into the 5G network could hamper relationships across the Atlantic was addressed.

Cotton warned that the deployment of Huawei 5G technology could allow hackers from the People’s Liberation Army to track the movements of parts used for the F-35.

He said: “I fear China is trying to drive a high-tech wedge between us [the US and UK] with Huawei.”

During the hearing, the Senator said that as the US pivots its focus to meeting the challenge posed by China in the Pacific, keeping US forces in the UK was already becoming a point of debate. He added that the UK’s decision to allow Huawei to build aspects of the UK’s 5G network added to the risks of deploying forces here.

You really think UK support Huawei 5G is for supporting China?

They want Huawei 5G becos its proves it network is far superior at data transmission rate and infrastructure are far cheaper to setup. Erisson and Nokia are no match for HUawei 5G. Those who install others instead of HUawei 5G are deluding themselves.

UK better drop F-35 and continue with her 6th gen. That way US cannot choking her neck and still able to use Huawei 5g. Win win for both, US lose

UK chose to F35... Good choice. There are alternatives to Huawei but no alternative for F35

The once confident superpower is using every measures on a Chinese company, what a sight.

PRISM stands to lose if China gets its way. Obviously the US/CIA/Military Industrial Complex is going to fight tooth and nail to prevent Chinese technology adoption by it's allies.
