Yeah the lying machine said basically it's different ram, made by different facilities (i.e. not in Taiwan), and it's also older and shittier for various reasons (extremely advanced chips having circuits/transistors or whatever that are so small being more vulnerable to EM interference so they use huge 20nm+ ones, and there being specific protocols on developing shit for defense technology just delaying new development)
I just think it's funny to think there's no RAM because the U.S. literally blows it up
Pretty much, and also there are really long planning cycles so what seemed cutting edge (at least by the standards of hardened, approved special hardware) at the start of the development is even more obsolete by the time anything actually gets built and delivered.
The equally reductive but actually true explanation is that there's no RAM because the US literally glues it all to pieces of trash (specialized AI GPUs without display outputs)
