I'll just point out that "replace foreign vendors with domestic for security reasons" is exactly what the US is trying to do to Huawei. I think the US and China are equally capable of succeeding at this kind of project..

The implicit assumption in most HN discussion is, if the US's doing it, it's fine and good. On the other hand, if China tries, it's doomed to fail.

I'd say the Chinese are more capable of this than the US, if for no other reason than that's the place where almost all hardware and hardware components are already made.
