“It is important to create conditions for cooperation, which can help develop a unique product,” Russia's digital ministry said in response to 11 developers being delisted from maintaining the Linux kernel.
Nah, it goes WAY back to pre-WW2. Russia basically made copying everyone else’s technology a major economic driver for them for decades, and it was all based around trying to sucker poorer countries into buying their awful products.
Cameras, radios, cars, weapons. Hell they even stole NASA Space Shuttle designs and tech to build their own, which just ended up in a junkyard.
I don’t think it was ever confirmed. They only flew the thing once, which was confirmed. Anything else claiming superior tech I’d call USSR propaganda.

And the Buran system was more impressive than the shuttle, capable of completely automated flight!
So they say but since it never even went into space it’s a bold claim.
I’m reading that it orbited at an altitude of up to 263 km, well above the Karman line. Is that not space?
Oh? Which test flight demonstrated that?

I’m not sure whether the orbital flight counts as test or operational, but that one. The prior test flights only had automated landings.
