Iran isn't the Only Nation Stealing U.S. Tech

The U.S. was shocked to discover that Iran was capable of replicating the unmanned RQ-170 aircraft, but they were in for more once they heard what their Italian allies had managed to replicate tech as well. Shortly after Iran released their replica of American technology, Italy was inspired to do the same. Italian government official, Francesco Virilisati said in an interview,

"At first we were frightened of the consequences of stealing American technology. We have been studying the hang-glider for centuries, but had no success until we captured an American version. Once Iran released their replica, we felt their doing so would overshadow ours and make ours seem insignificant. Our hopes were that this would prevent and animosity between our nations."

Their plan may not have worked, as President Obama is currently meeting with advisors to discuss the alliance between the U.S. and Italy.

The Italian hang-glider could be a global game changer. The hang-glider is a replica of a U.S. hang-glider which was shot down in 1943 during Allied invasions. Since then Italian scientists have been working to reconstruct the hang-glider. Italian scientist spokesperson reportedly stated that the reason the replication took so long is that their version could not fly due to a hole in the wing, a factor which only recently was discovered to be the bullet hole from the shot that took the glider out of the sky.
