...very heavily influenced by the West. I speak about Soviet tanks, antitank missiles, antiaircraft missiles, aircraft and submarines. Sometimes you see a Soviet tank and it's a genuine Soviet tank. But inside you can see the stabilizers for the tank guns, night vision, communications equipment and engines that owe their existence to Western technology...
