This reminds me of a ...possibly apocryphal... story told to me by a former boss who had been in the Signal Corps during and after WW II. It seems that the Army found a warehouse in Japan full of defective electronic tubes. The story was that a Japanese spy had gotten ahold of an American one and they had copied it, not realizing that the one they copied was defective.
