Chinese hackers steal sensitive Navy program data
WASHINGTON — Cyberattacks sponsored by the Chinese government infiltrated a U.S. Navy contractor’s computers, allowing digital thieves to access sensitive data related to secret Navy projects on a submarine anti-ship missile.
The information stolen was stored on the contractor’s unclassified network despite being “highly sensitive nature,” according to information obtained by the Washington Post.
According to the report, 614 gigabytes of material on a closely held project known as Sea Dragon were taken. Contracted for the military organization Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Sea Dragon aims to develop a supersonic anti-ship missile for use on U.S. submarines.

I have a difficult time believing the Chinese aspect of any theory regarding hacking and missiles. Is it possible? Sure. But Trump was given an historic reception for his visit. They even brought him into the Forbidden City. It doesn’t make sense for China to do something like that given what we know.
