They may not be the hardest to manufacture. But someone still needs to do it. Factor in different aircraft types and proprietary manufacturing processes, never mind the cost and I think this is a good example of some of the difficulties Russia has following the sanctions. I heard a new set of brakes for a light business aircraft made in small numbers can be upwards of $100,000, which puts things in some perspective.
