any such data began it's life at a PR meeting somewhere in the Kremlin, then it was placed in such a location or outlet that would make it appear to be legit.
the KGB (now called FSB) was leaps and bounds ahead of the CIA or MI6 during the cold war, so its not difficult to believe they are still on top of their game, especially given that the Russian head of state is an old school KGB guy.
too many people think that because the russians lack mcdonalds starbucks and endless neon signage, that they haven't kept up with the things that they think are important.
those same people are going to point to the obviously failed invasion of ukraine and think that the russians don't have jack shit for a military, while that definitely appears to be the case at current, the russian military has yet to field their best of the best equipment at large scale.
So i figure that if their statements about their cutting edge military gear are even half true, then they are reserving this equipment for the event they have to actually go fight a real military.
They are gonna keep on getting ass blasted by western weapons in Ukraine, because they don't have to bring the best of the best to bear to accomplish whatever they think their goal in ukraine is.
