High-tech in Russia is aerospace technology, weapon defense systems, nuclear energy.

not to mention a share of the profits of foreign companies such as titanium details to Boeing(~5% per sale) and sapphire glass in Apple Watch.
Your GDP says nothing about what world wants and buys from you, thus I gave you your export statistics. You produce almost nothing of finished value. You pump oil and sell raw resources.

Your crystal manufacturer for apple watch posted whooping 87 million dollar revenue. Hardly anything to be proud of.

And no, there isn't 5% per sale. More fruits of your imagination. They just buy titanium from Russia. Tiny fracture of your total imports.

You aerospace is struggling. Thats why you continued to sell engines to the west instead of sanctioning them as you did with other junk no-one wants or buys. With declining prices of oil your ways of making $$$ are drying up.
