  1. Guided missiles existed before transistors hit the nanometre scale.

  2. Chip manufacturing is extremely complex. Beyond a certain point you have billions of transistors all close to each other, a little mistake and electrons start leaking through the "wires" and the thing doesn't work. You don't just need the machines but also the brains of experienced designers. It's probably more of a dark art than a nuclear program.

  3.  @rap3208  Hypersonic is a meme. The US had manned hypersonic planes in the 1960s. They just stopped developing hypersonic because ICBMs already existed. Did you see the Khinzal get shot down like 7 times by a Patriot in Ukraine? Turns out it doesn't matter how fast you go if you're just going to collide head on with the interceptor.

  4. Nobody asked them to.

  5. They already had cruise missiles.

  6. Who cares about patents? Many businesses don't file them because they want to keep tech a secret.

  7. College doesn't teach you the secret sauce. You really think companies are sending their corporate secrets to universities?

  8. That doesn't make any sense. The NSA collects information from cell operators. The brand of the chip is irrelevant.
