Fun fact, the math behind radar stealth was developed by a Russian scientists and was ignored in URSS because it had a shit title. US delayed translating it because they didn't undersrand the title. After a few years somebody at lockeed marting found it and realized what it meant. I think F-117 was developed based on that.
Are Russian scientists extraordinary or something?
Demonstrably so, given the success of Russian industry.
They had a lot of excellent scientists.
