@M8143K Russia is not stupid. They do have an excellent R&D base, and a strong military-industrial complex. However, their low relative GDP and high corruption means that advanced military equipment, like the Su-35, Su-57, and T-14 tank, are produced in very low numbers and are geared towards export. While the US jealously guards its military secrets and has not exported the F-22 (and stopped exporting F-35s to Turkey for fear of compromising its stealth), Russia actively seeks out buyers for its most advanced military equipment. However, even China, which has been a longtime buyer (perhaps thief) of Russian weaponry, has been investing in domestic production.
