Well, I read a story yesterday which said they couldn’t make the lander as sophisticated as they wanted to because they no longer had access to lighter materials, equipment, and electronics. Foreign stuff was simply better than Russian-made alternatives. I don’t know why the lander crashed, but I’m guessing that it might not have if they could use foreign components.
