A year-long investigation by the Senate Armed Services Committee found over 1,800 cases of fake electronic components in everything from cargo aircraft to night vision goggles.

The report released Monday said that more than 70 percent of an estimated one million suspect parts could be traced to China.

The investigation also criticized U.S. authorities and defense contractors for not being able to detect fakes or for routinely failing to report cases of suspected counterfeit parts.

The committee blamed Chinese officials for interfering with its investigation, saying U.S. investigators involved in the probe were denied visas and were told that a negative report could harm U.S.-China relations.美國國會參議院所做的一次調查結果顯示，美國軍用裝備中使用的中國仿製電子配件對美國軍隊的安全造成危害，並對美國國家安全構成威脅。

美國參議院軍事委員會的這項調查進行了一年，在美國軍用裝備中發現1800多種仿造電子配件，從貨運飛機到夜視鏡，包含範圍很廣。

星期一公佈的調查報告說，估計100萬個可疑配件中的70%以上可追查來自中國。

調查報告還批評美國有關當局和國防承包商未能檢驗出仿造品，而且通常即使發現可疑的仿造配件也不報告。
此外，美國參議院軍事委員會指責中國官員干涉這次調查，拒絕爲美國調查人員發放簽證，並對調查人員說，負面報告會損害美中關係。
