A SNAPPY salute to Philippine intelligence authorities following the arrests of five more Chinese nationals, claiming to be tourists from Taiwan,
suspected of spying on coast guard and navy installations.
The US Army’s mobile Typhon missile system, consisting of a launcher and at least 16 Standard Missile-6 and Tomahawk Land Attack Missiles, was repositioned about two weeks ago from the northern Philippines to a strategic area nearer Manila. LiDAR, for Light Detection and Ranging, sensors are devices that use lasers to measure distances and create 3D models of their surroundings and are used in many applications, including autonomous vehicles, mapping, and disaster assessment.
The Chinese nationals were allegedly working with Deng Yuanqing, another Chinese arrested earlier in January along with two supposed Filipino accomplices on similar charges, according to the National Bureau of Investigation.
