 I beg to differ - Soviet technology is still here. Ukraine has
destroyed 3336 tanks so far, most of those from the soviet era.
 The still use Soviet Soyuz boosters.
 One might note that Putin desires the return of the Sovyetky Soyuz.

Don't forget the 14,000 soviet nuclear weapons.  Thousands of the battlefield nuclear weapons are being distributed to the Russian troops right now.  The Ukranian advance is 300 miles inside Russia and they are not going to burn Moscow this time.
