Sensitive components of the F-35 stealth fighter jet, including a cockpit canopy and weapons-bay door coated with radar-absorbing material, were mistakenly shipped to Hong Kong and subsequently seized by Chinese authorities. The error occurred when a UPS employee missed an email warning not to send the shipment through Hong Kong due to U.S. export-control restrictions.
