How good of you to convey as much of our technological expertise as
possible to your Chinese doctoral candidate colleague.

There isn't much point in concealing old technology they can buy at a
scrapyard. Stories from WW2 prisoners such as Greg Boyington show a
considerable difference between the open attitudes of Japanese who had
visited the West and the narrow racist prejudices of those who hadn't.

OTOH before WW1 the British and Germans had been each other's largest
trading partners..

Do you really think such machines are not already churned out in chinese
factories

I see 2700+ such suppliers on the mainland. I did some work on driving
them optimally using accelerometers etc. a while ago (end customer was
the US military) but really in most cases this is _mature_ technology
that has no real secrets to yield.
