Now if I am not wrong the Soviet Union was actually spending relatively less on the military around that time and that Gorbachev had decided, upon the advice of top scientists, that the SU should not even compete with Star Wars.
Can anyone point me to reasonably accurate numbers regarding Soviet military spending in that period? What has been the response of the Right when confronted with this matter?
