The Washington Post claims to ahev gained access to classified documents stating that Chinese hackers compromised systems contrianing information about the USA's highly classified cutting edge defense products (like the F-35 and PAC3 PAtriot missiles).

The report goes on to list other critical defense systems like the Aegis ballistic-missile defense system, F/18, V22, etc. Could this report be the reason the US Government has started to take a much stronger and much more public stance against Chinese hackers?
