FORMER British military could face prison if they are caught training Chinese fighter pilots.<\/p>\n
Ex-RAF, navy and army pilots will be prosecuted for sharing military tactics with foreign powers if they are found teaching rival top guns under new laws.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It comes in the wake of serious concerns over Beijing spying in Westminster and revelations that UK fighter pilots have been training troops in China.<\/p>\n
It emerged last year that around 30 former British military pilots had been teaching the People\u2019s Liberation Army, lured by huge salaries of \u00a3240,000.<\/p>\n
Now any former UK Armed Forces personnel who trains foreign militaries around the world can be prosecuted under the National Security Act.<\/p>\n
Defence Secretary Grant Shapps said: \u201cAnyone found to be acting against the UK\u2019s interests by training our competitors\u2019 militaries can now expect to be pursued and brought to justice.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThe government has acted decisively following the identification of this threat, and has made rapid changes to legislation to help shut it down.\u201d<\/p>\n
The UK government is also working with our allies experiencing similar problems to fight the issue internationally.<\/p>\n
Security Minister Tom Tugendhat added: \u201cIn recent years we\u2019ve seen attempts to harm our people, damage our economy and undermine our democracy. <\/p>\n
"We\u2019ve also seen attempts from countries such as China to solicit national secrets from former Armed Forces personnel.\u201d<\/p>\n
