Russia has that too, nevertheless Kinzhal and Kalibr (which are lower-Mach and don’t carry a hypersonic glider stage) are both about 10 MUSD.
Just the costs of JP-10/decilin are considerable already.
Depending on the specs, I’d assume the price to be a few MUSD, never under 100 kUSD.
It’s economics. Materials and even the fuel used by hypersonics (as in maneuvrable high-Mach glide vehicle) have a certain price tag, even in China.
100 kUSD buys far too little of that, even in Russia and China.
Fat nodes on fast low-latency pipes ran on dual-stacked servers 24/7 reduce ephemeral node churn and aid in node and content discovery.
Mobile devices on P2P behind CGNAT and other brain damage are more a problem, than a solution.
It’s a proxy war with capabilities deliberately throttled on both sides. This is why we all are still alive yet.
Let’ hope NATO has the brains to accept its loss gracefully. Or, at least, not escalate beyond limited tactical nuclear exchange.
Consors bank so far is an alternative. NFC cards, hardware TAN generators, app not forcing use of proprietary OSses. LineageOS is fine, need to check GOS.
No, hardware TAN generator work fine. If the bank wants to force me to use proprietary snake oil it’s time for a new bank. Or using a dedicated old smartphone just for the app.
Seriously? Open computing is dead to you because you can’t order fast food or play games? I don’t even have Google Play on this GOS device.
And, by the way, my banking app works fine on LineageOS. Not that I need it, since I use a hardware TAN generator.
IMEI/IMSI are collected (and immediately linked, hence deanonymized even if SIM was inserted only once) by cell tower operators. Just not bring your device, period.
In hypersonics Russia currently has a lead over China. Obviously they’re going to catch up rather soon.
