An alleged1 Belgian arms dealer2 has pleaded guilty to conspiring3 to illegally export jet engines and parts from the US to Iran, officials say.

官员称,一名比利时军火商承认阴谋非法从美国向伊朗出售喷气式发动机和零部件。

Officials say Jacques Monsieur planned to export parts for F-5 fighter jets

The suspect, Jacques Monsieur, now faces a maximum prison sentence of six years and a $250,000 (£150,000) fine.

Mr Monsieur, a resident of France, was arrested in August in New York.

Court documents say he is an experienced arms dealer(军火商) who was actively4 seeking weapons for the government of Iran.

After his arrest Mr Monsieur was charged with violating the arms control act, smuggling5(走私), money-laundering(洗钱) and conspiracy6.

Some of the charges can carry maximum sentences of 20 years in jail.

Officials said a sting operation(突击行动) revealed that he was trying to buy engines and other parts for F-5 fighter jets.

They alleged the defendant7 had wired $110,000 (£68,000) to a bank account in Alabama in July as payment for jet parts and had promised another $300,000 as down payment(订金,头期款) for two engines.

The parts could have been used as replacements8 in the aging military jets sold to Iran by the US before the 1979 Iranian revolution.

Under a trade embargo9(贸易禁运), the items cannot be exported to Iran without a license10 from the US government.

A co-defendant in the case, Iranian Dara Fotouhi, remains11 on the run(逃跑,忙碌).
