In what sense ? Russia started the space race, the Soviet Union led by Russia was the first country to put a man in space. The Cosmonaut Yuri Gargarin . This led to the race for space which led to the creation of NASA by President Dwight Eisenhower.

They are not more efficient but cheaper. If you had the funds and weresl asked to pick between American and Russian/Chinese products, which would you choose? A whole lot of things goes into making a product cheaper. If you cut down on quality...you definitely will end up with a cheaper product. Same product, if made in Nigeria will be much cheaper than when produced in the USA. Cost of labor, quality, cost of raw materials, government regulations, taxes, etc. all contribute to the cost of the final product.

The US only has more funds - courtesy of the petrodollar. They're not ahead of Russia or China - who achieve similar results with 100 times less budget. If anything, the Russians and the Chinese are more efficient

They are more efficient. They aren't built for profit like greedy American capitalists.

Russian equipments lasts long and sometimes works even better than American ones, if you've ever used one you won't be saying this.

Starlink has 6000. And is just 500km in earth's orbit. Bureau 1440 satellites are 800km in the earths orbit.

The higher the distance the broader the coverage. 1500 Bureau 1440 satellites will cover same area as 6000 Starlink satellite.

By the way, Starlink satellites are temporary and they fall off after a while.

Well, USA is ahead of them 1000 times.

Russia lies a lot (like Mr Kaliningrad lies a lot), so we can't know yet if it's working or not. That said, the Russians are very good at building things. Unfortunately for them, many of the top engineers have left the country, but I guess they can still do their best with what they have left.

Back in the Soviet era, engineers were treated very well such that the smartest kids typically aspired to become engineers. That helped them foster a culture of excellent engineering.

Russia is a different matter though – some of the old culture is still there, but the corruption and dysfunction of Putin's Russia is a major block to excellence in anything. Just look at their military.

Yet, at most times, they wait for the U.S. to make a discovery/attempt and then try to copy and do the same. Most times, these 2 countries lack innovation.

Is that why cheap Iranian drones keep destroying America's expensive overrated gadgets??

You're correct. The Chinese just copy. The Russians can be innovative, but like the man said, they don't have the kind of money it takes. Plus the corruption and dysfunction that ensure that budgeted funds aren't used judiciously.

Sadly. Just this afternoon, I was reflecting on how there isn't one single product/brand that was created by an African in Africa that is recognised and used all over the world.

How do we fight injustice in the country without technology. If he'd a functional satellite, would terrorists & bandits be moving around freely without being seen easily?
