This is a very short-sighted take, that relies on the assumption Russians are comically corrupt and incompetent. I'm sure the mechanisms to prevent this sort of theft that are in place in the USA have similar analogues in Russia, starting with inspections of facilities and background checks of personnel.

The current three-day special operation has shown the world how incompetent and corrupt the russian leadership is, no need for gloves.

Personally, I don't think it's a good idea to underestimate an enemy like that.

Thinking the other side is incompetent or in the brink of losing is the kind of thinking kept the 20 year, $2.313 trillion Afghanistan War going, and we know how that ended.
