Biggest NATO betrayal? MI5 watched helplessly as China secured Britain’s hard-earned aerial secrets

A new report has raised serious questions over Britain's former military pilots after claims that ex-RAF and Royal Navy aviators trained Chinese personnel in advanced air combat tactics. The report alleges pilots were paid lucrative contracts to teach dogfighting, missile tactics, carrier operations and flight testing through a South African academy later sanctioned by the United States. It also links the wider operation to a convicted Chinese intelligence figure accused of targeting Western military secrets.
