  1. My question is. How were the Soviets making missiles? I mean I know they had a huge brain drain over the last 23 years, but seriously. Russia kept up their space program. Had massive AA systems before. Was it just cheaper, and the dissolution of their industry included those making their components? Were the ex Soviet states responsible? No one ever talks about that.

  2.  @felipe-vibor  Yeah exactly what happened to the infrastructure to make them? Sure they might not be up to today's standard. Yet they had a whole slew of different systems, and people that made them. They still make like 60 plus nanometer chips. Soviets arguably had focused more on missile tech compared to the west who focused on air power. It was their way to defeat a larger Air Force. I don't get it.

  3. What happened to the Soviet missile makers? I mean they were self sufficrnt 23 yesrs ago. I know brain drain hit them hard when the Soviet Union fell. How were they making their missiles before the fall?
