"Well, certainly 99.99 percent of americans don't have this either:)"
It's more like 90% in my opinion (counting crappy ideas)
"The russians are very far behind and technology changes so very fast."
Russia military tech is still decent; if what u said is true then so is China's. It's been pretty well known that most of China's new military tech comes from Russia (I guess you can count espionage too - but again, it's copying....)
Depends on what tech you're talking about. Some areas are not developonig has rapidly as electronics, computers and software. For instance russian jet fighters are still very much on top in many respects, but their avioncis/radar/target tracking suck big time comparing to modern american/french fighters. (and THAT I heard from a friend who's russian defence contractor).

As for the first part, I'm am almost entirely certain that that is not correct. The russians are very far behind and technology changes so very fast. I remember hearing this from some friends in electronic defense contracting. I'll have to find some sources.
