wasn't there some urban-tech legend about the
Americans getting
hold of a Cuban MIG fighter and laughing at the low-tech electronics they
found?
Purportedly - the Russians were using tubes! ..that are claimed to be EMP
proof.
Yes, I had some 1970s and 80s era nav equipment out of a MiG, and it was
tubed. Neat stuff, but I sold it off.
