NTC "Modul" was fined 290 million rubles for nearly a one-year delay in delivering a radiation-hardened processor intended to replace foreign PowerPC chips in Russian space and defense systems. This delay reflects broader challenges in Russia's import substitution efforts in microelectronics for military applications.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.
