If somebody wants to talk about false narratives they should first stop this "Central Asia" generalization themselves! Tajikistan is an ethnically Iranian country and has nothing to do with Turkic central Asian countries, in fact relations are quite bad and there were border conflicts have been happening including an incident only few months ago. This bad relations with neighbours, destabilized country conditions and having a long border with Afghanistan put Tajikistan as an ideal place for terrorist activities. As a Turkish person i already knew there was some isis activity in Tajikistan before this attack so attackers being from there didn't surprise me at all especially condering the country's poor conditions.
About terrorists not looking like jihadists since their defeat in most of middle east isis terrorists went undercover so to speak. They are still hiring people and engaging in some illegal activities but they are heavily hunted in everywhere. Also we are talking about really poor people here, in Tajikistan minimum wage is 50 dollars, if you offer these people 2,000 dollar a month you can make them do almost anything and slowly brainwash them. Anybody in their right mind wouldn't join isis anyway so it is not that hard to manipulate inviduals willing to join isis for payment..
About why they would do this and if it is a false flag attack, i'm not sure. Usually there would be a clear reason behind such attacks, for example they targeted Turkish tourism spesifically back in the day and caused at least 10 billion dollars damage to Turkish economy. Here i can't see any reason honestly, perhaps they are trying to destabilize Russian fedaration and trying to infiltrate into Russia's large Muslim minority but it is far fetched. When false flag claimed everybody somehow thinks it has to be Ukraine but it isn't at all! They can use a false flag attack like this to blame Russia's Muslim population and use it to suppress them freely, in fact this Muslim minority is also the most anti-war and even pro-independence population in Russia. So they have reasons to suppress them and it wouldn't be first time Russia using similar tactics. It was again their propaganda machine declaring FSA (Ordinary Syrians who only tried to topple Assad) as terrorists and sadly it worked. Even western countries ditched supporting FSA while mostly Turkey still supporting them today..
So it could be a false flag as well, i guess we will learn it in few weeks. If it slowly disappears from Russian media then a real attack while if it shifts towards Ukraine or Muslim minority heavily then it was a false flag.

I don't think PPP calculation is close to real production neither. It is simply because cost of arms is severely changing from country to country. Turkey would be a perfect example of this, they have a tiny military budget, but we look at what they are getting with that budget the picture completely changes. They have one of highest arms production in Europe, producing helicopters, aircrafts, missiles, tanks, APCs, air defense systems, even 31 ships/submarines, if i remember right, currently under construction. They are the only European country with a 5th generation aircraft project, only European country producing their own armed drones. In fact they have over 400 medium-altitude long-endurance armed drones while some European countries didn't even begin operating them yet. Fortunately Russia isn't this much cost effective neither and they are still lacking in some areas like armed drones. But the overall picture is still quite bleak, let's face it, Russia is ramping up production while Europe is chasing its own tail apart from a few good examples..
