Russia is seizing hundreds of commercial jets owned by US and European leasing companies, a further sign of the challenges the country's airline industry faces due to sanctions following its invasion of Ukraine.

Russia supplies the world with a flood of simple to maintain rifles, sure. Older Soviet gear is always on sale, too, just like anything that wasn’t nailed down from that era. But night vision gear on Russian tanks is French. Russia just isn’t the high tech wonderland you imagine. You’re being thick headed insisting that any single country is self-sufficient.

Also, you what happened to the great Soviet stockpiles of nuclear weapons? They were sold to the American nuclear energy industry to power homes and televisions. The ultimate triumph of capitalism.

I love how I literally linked you an article showing what Russia actually supplies, and you continue to spread misinformation in the reply. It’s just phenomenal to see to be honest.

I also love how you imagine that Russia isn’t able to continue innovating and manufacturing things after USSR. All the same scientists, engineers, workers, and factories are still there, but somehow magically they stopped being able to make new things.

Russia just isn’t the high tech wonderland you imagine.

Why don’t we take a look at what people who actually know what they’re talking about have to say about this https://www.chathamhouse.org/2021/09/advanced-military-technology-russia

You’re being thick headed insisting that any single country is self-sufficient.

Russia produces all of its necessities domestically, that’s a fact. Meanwhile, anything it can’t produce it gets from China https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1569862/putin-xi-russia-china-partners-sanctions-ukraine-gas-usa

Also, you what happened to the great Soviet stockpiles of nuclear weapons? They were sold to the American nuclear energy industry to power homes and televisions. The ultimate triumph of capitalism.

Russia has over 6,000 nukes, but whatever you say.

Seeing dilapidated the state of it’s air force, navy, and military the claim of 6000 working nukes is absolutely preposterous. I cry bullshit.
