The Chinese regime nearly got its hands on new designs for America’s latest fighter jet. New designs that could cut costs in producing the F-35 advanced fighter jet were found in the luggage of a Chinese national who was traveling from New York to China.

Yu Long, 36, was charged in a Bridgeport, Conn., court on Dec. 9 for attempting to travel to China with documents he took from an unnamed major defense contractor in Connecticut where he worked.
