Western tanks are built to protect the crew, while Soviet/Russian are built to advance regardless of anything without much consideration about crew safety (typical Soviet mentality). The turret throw is due to the shells being stored right under the crew, beneath the turret, and when those detonate (which is quite easy with modern anti tank weapons), everything is thrown magnificently into the air. Crew has no way to survive. It's different with western tanks, where shells are stored more safely and such a hit usually doesn't evaporate the crew.

They also throw their turrets much better when hit.

Let's see, it'll certainly be an interesting development in any scenario.

Interesting, but for the time being lets call it vaporware. It'll be really interesting if they actually make it work.

In terms of cutting edge chip production they're well behind - think lithography.

They have a looooong way ahead.

Sure, but then again, there are other elements as well.

Indeed awesome. Sadly no words about recycling such a battery, though it sounds like it should be fairly recyclable.

Cars are probably covered differently by law, like minimum years producer has to offer replacement parts and such. Probably all boils down to the contract for that exoskeleton. Definitely not an excuse for that petty company trying to suck tens of thousands of dollars instead of a simple repair.

I think the ramifications of what Israel did will go far far beyond fear in non west countries. We entered the stage when you can't trust your device anymore to not explode when some state (or non-state) actor would deem you disposable. Everybody should be concerned when they receive a phone call. If nothing else, it should change the way we fly - now security will annoy you with prohibiting bringing even water on airplane. What now? We should travel without any electronic device? Heck, even China didn't go that far (west is banning their devices mostly for economic purposes even though they mimic them as 'security').

Just from outside you say?

Ah, ok, I thought you were taking about Windows not being able to run CPU at full speed. But yes, it's certainly a different OS with ups and downs.
