    If the conversation went in such way, here's my contribution:)
    Russian space programms have very little financing and experience big difficulties because of that. Their whole potential cannot unfold, and space technics which is being used now was developed in the USSR and is mostly old-fashioned. So they try to make money on those old technologies to create new ones, and of course, old technics isn't too reliable. Although still one of the most reliable and cheap in the world.

    By the way, that craft was also built in Russia for american money:)
