    You need a reasonably capable semiconductor industry or partnership with somebody that has one.

    I do think Iran has both of those, but I’m not an expert. Anyway, they had a major setback once because they were relying on electronics trafficked from Germany.

      That’s not how stuxnet works. I’m not a tanky by any means. I’m an American and we had to hire a swedish operative to infiltrate their closed Gap systems and insert a rubber ducky. The problem wasn’t that the machinery came from Germany. The problem was we paid off a swedish guy to rape the software.

        Do you think Chinese military ADCs are vulnerable to Windows 0-day attacks?

        People would have a much harder time if Iran had a proper sourcing of their equipment.

          You realize there are several root escalation zero day exploits for all versions of the Linux kernal from that time period right?
