One of the reasons for all bling no basics in the Russian military is most of the hardware and systems they build are sold abroad. So it’s more important that it looks impressive to potential buyers than that it actually works in the field. Also, Russian manufacturing and procurement is so corrupt at every level that it’s more surprising when complex machinery works than when it doesn’t.
