    Reportedly the Russian factory workers are being paid quite well.

    Paid well for Russian factory workers

    And the lack of quality is just a myth I think. There’s no indication that’s actually true.

    Then you haven’t been paying attention.

      Yes lmao, let’s just ignore the overall abysmal precision, the anti-air defense that strikes it’s own cities, the exploding shells upon firing, etc. No lack of quality here.

        Yeah, there’s a reason why they suddenly have a lot of trouble selling their military hardware even to countries that haven’t sanctioned them.

        Well, other reasons in addition to the fact that the stuff they’re fielding themselves in Ukraine keeps getting blown the fuck up and they have had to replace it with something that was initially being built for an outside customer. “Yeah you remember those tanks you ordered? Weeelll you’re not going to be getting them quite on schedule, there’s been some… uh… complications. The turrets… they, uh… experienced rapid unplanned disassembly caused by… uh… assembly workers smoking in the crew compartment. Definitely not caused by inferior westoid antitank missiles in Ukraine, our cope cages work against those 100% of the time and it’s not like we’d use your tanks in combat, no siree Bob”
