Russia designs amazing new Tanks, Fighters, Bombers-- can't afford to buy any
-
Let's be clear here: that T-14 is an amazing machine that can probably wipe the floor with any other tank in the world. But a "few hundred" of them is... kind of crappy.
The T-50 is a capable machine, but without India buying any and Russia only wanting 50, what's the point?
The PAK-DA bomber was a stupid idea from the get-go. Tu-160's might not be sexy, but they're proven and practical.

The article says they scaled even that back to 12 and called it "an expanded test and operational validation force at best."
-
Well it's good to know Russia's air force is going to be crippled by their equivalent to the F-35 program, also.
-
I bet there are plenty of States that will buy the stuff though. It's not like the Russians (or any other State for that matter) have any morals or scruples about who they sell too. Any more than they need the cash.
-
But how many can afford them?
Like the article says, India was the best prospect, and they're buying from the French.
-
True, but then they may not always what money.
My bad, I used the word cash rather than "exchange currency" :)
