Default Is China buying Hummer a strategic move?

Wonder if the China Co move to buy Hummer may not have a military undercurrent...

What they are buying is the platforms and all data related to Hummer division. Asian engineers will have a new look to what they move forward on...

There is a major separation between reverse engineering and moving forward planning...
When you have access to original design and current plans. As well as performance data. Its a new world of information for new generations. The Hummer designs as they stand did not just come from nothing. They represent years of research and engineering.

The E Bay sale of Monica Lewinski's skivies and top secret Hummer plans went to North Korea. Under the new secty of State. Undisclosed portions of Cuban Cigars as trade off
