welcome to world politics -

US sold a Boeing 767 to China which was planned to be used by the Chinese President as the official jet, as expected, it is full of bugs.

Idea for political trolling: just once, sell the other country a jet or whatever without a single bug, and laugh as they desperately tear it apart, trying to uncover something.
Bonus points if you leak the intel/design plans talking about your recent breakthrough in bug technology and how untraceable they'll be now.
