Wondering how many are left and how many they can make.
Estimates vary wildly but anywhere from 200-800. And production estimates vary as well from 5-60/month. So 70 is a significant number.
Yeah... and i imagine that they lose more as they can't provide mutual overlapping cpverage.
they're hideously expensive AND ridiculously complex... but even worse, a tremendous amount of electronics that can't be fabricated in russia are involved. so as far as production is concerned - they can't make many, it'll take a long time, and it'll rely on evading western sanctions.
thats why putin has been desperately trying to make trump and other EU members lift as many sanctions as possible.
truth
And how many they need!
