Mindef paid for made in US product price but was delivered MIC products... so you know whose fault it is ?

The Committee concluded that the most probable cause of the incident was a defective fuze
that was attached to the 155mm shell which was loaded into the gun howitzer. The defective
fuze resulted in the premature explosion. After the incident, the lot of fuzes from which the
defective fuze came was X-rayed. 1.3% of the fuzes were found to be defective.
This defective lot of fuzes was supplied by the Chartered Ammunition Industries (CAI) to
MINDEF under an agreement in 1992. CAI was to supply fuzes manufactured according to

internationally accepted military specifications. These military specifications require
thorough inspections and other quality control measures during and after the manufacturing
process to eliminate all defects in the fuzes.
CAI, in turn, contracted with a U.S. company, Island Ordnance Systems (IOS), for the supply
of these fuzes. Without the knowledge of CAI, IOS obtained the fuzes from Xian Dong Fang
Machinery Factory in the People's Republic of China (PRC). In October 94, CAI discovered
that the fuzes were manufactured at the factory in the PRC rather than in the USA. However,
CAI did not notify MINDEF of this discovery. MINDEF only became aware that these fuzes
were manufactured in the PRC during the Committee of Inquiry proceedings in Mar.
