Soviet tech died when the USSR fell, because it was 20 years out of date, such as analog vs digital. The only part that survived was weapons, because of price, knowledge, and it’s was a okay match for the small scale conflicts. But the old Soviet tech has aged badly, even with western add on’s. For Starters US/NATO got first gen night vision in the 80s, second gen 90s, we are now into the fourth gen. This is just one technology the Moscow don’t have at all. You can buy first and second gen for 300 to 2000 on Amazon!
