Why is firing unguided rockets low tech and the USA using 30mm cannon on the A10 somehow high tech?

All the most advanced USA semiconductors  are made in Taiwan as well, within 120 km of CHina. Using Dutch manufactured fabs.

Most military uses do not need the top CPUs, those are needed for satellites and cellphones.

Russia has it's own semiconductor foundries a mixture of commercial and military.
We only know the specs on the commercial foundries.

China has advanced semiconductor foundries, eg SMIC with 8/14nm fab lines. I am quite sure China will sell Russia chips that it needs.

Taiwan doesn't control the market for industrial semiconductors, foundries for those can be found in many countries.
eg. TSMC likes to focus on premium latest and greatest.

Yes I am sure China and India can supply Russia with anything they need. Even as brokers.

Russia is not carrying out heavy strikes on Kiev so far, but I can give you one reason why Russia could level it to the ground. If it occurs to anyone in Kiev to destroy the Kievo-Pecherskaya Lavra, then Russia will level Kiev to the ground.
God forbid that it occurs to anyone in Ukroshitstan, the Russians will plow Kiev.
Remember these words of mine, because what you see in the picture is a great shrine of the Russian Orthodox Church! If the Nazis think of damaging it, Kiev will no longer exist.

Bitch please, do you really think anyone gives a shit about some dilapidated building?

Nobody is plowing Kiev

You only need chips in places where autonomous operation needed . Also if the use of these weapons with chips , from West , becomes significant , Russia could detonate some EMP and fry all their circuits . Back to the basics.

aparrently the mosca destroyer was not equipped with the electronics cooking fry machine ,you
talk about , neither russian territory had them ,when 2 low flying mi-8 hellicopters attack russian citiesa and then return..  

you guys stop with the excuses , people need to evaluate russian army performance ,based on
reality , of how slow and how many generals killed. and warships sinked.. including their best warship in the baltic sea.

about the video posted a bit earlier of precision strikes by russia on an ukros trench..  if people pay
any attention at all at the video , they will notice  the hundreds if not thousands of failed artillery strikes at ukies positions..  so if russia was using ultra precision attacks with drones , 24 hours a day , this entire conflict would be over already and donbass will have been captured in just 1 week.  
because there is no way , the ukraine military will hide in trenches , if they had strike drones targeting them with precision , from above day and night non stop at all times..  

The reality is russian don't have air superiority in ukraine ,and is not using heavily drones in their combats.. and the proof of the super extensive use of artillery by russian military , 24 hours a day.
if you had a powerful airforce , that dominated ukraine airspace , none of this artillery strikes will be need at all , you just bomb the soldiers , without ever missing ,and force them to run away or die in the trench.


Look at this @ark  observe how trench warfare is totally useless when you have an a strong strike ke force , targeting adversaries non stop  24 hours a day..  even russian tors defenses and s-300s where totally destroyed by azerbaikan baykatar drones..  

pay close attention @ark , how modern warfare is done right.  
lets make russian airforce great again?


This is the way russian airforce should be fighthign ukraine ,
and not with bullshit 24 hours artillery duels , that miss 99% of the time. just bomb the hell
them ,with precision strikes and they will surrender.



observe how hopeless are those armenians hidding in trenches there , they are literary blow into pieces,  and all fully documented in video. poor armenian soldiers flying in the air after the bomb hits them.. this was a massacre.. and this is how russia should be fighting.. .. who in hell is going to hide in a trench , when there are laser precision strike drones above your head ,with a big missile?  



you will not have a chance to hide in any trench , if your airforce can  fly above enemy positions with impunity and bomb them 24 hours a day with high precision. you can't use artillery if enemy airforce flying above your position either..

artillery is a yesterday weapon, it will become more and more obsolete , the more stronger the airforce of a military becomes..

So russian army ,need to ask azerbaikan help , so russian airforce is trainned , how to use drones properly, as they did it.  perhaps buy israeli or baykatar drones , and receive trainning , because what russia have been doing in 3 months , is way way behind of the outstanding performance of azerbaijan and turkey in the armenian war , that russian forces were humiliated there.

no excuses.. russian airforce performance is totally unnaceptable ,in ukraine , what is the problem , hard to say , but seems to be not enough drones , or very poor tactics..  or both , whatever is , the problem. they need to ask help azerbaijan and or srael.. to show russian airforce why they have so much problems ,targeting ukrainians in their trenches..  this attemps of russian army to win the war with endless of artillery strikes is so out datedd , does not belong to 21 century modern warfare.
instead of trying to guess where the enemy  is,  just dominate the airspace and keep drones flying non stop about your enemy positions.. they will not want to fight and surrender ,as armenia did it , if they have no place to hide ,and had no protection from the enemy drones attacks.

there is no excuses for paper tiger russian airforce, if azerbaijan could do it , there is no reason ,why they cant do it too..  and armenia had all modern air defenses of russia and still lost..  

so give me a break, russia have zero excuses , they need to learn to fight with drones , or else face more defeats , when they face a nato major power directly in war.

Do not be deceived about Medvedev - as president, he also did a lot to ensure that Russian electronics did not develop.
