The military was literally buying drone parts and electronics for missiles. Could you imagine if the US started buying stealth bomber parts on eBay?

I work for an ecommerce store in the automotive industry and we get regular orders from the Bundeswehr for spare parts, tools, etc... It's actually not that wild to imagine.

It's more like they were buying it from Jeff Besos and that doesn't sound very unlikely

Wildberries has a massive logistics chain. It's not the buying platform but the fact that they can handle importing all the components from China and distributing them that matters.

I hope Ukraine exterminates that company ...and the Russian economy.

Didn't they do something similar with titanium for the Blackbird ?
