Why only government agencies and military contractors? I couldn't find a price indication, but it might be interesting for security minded people in general. If it doesn't have any western IP in it, it might be resistant to influence in general. Who knows what kind of "design constraints" intelligence agencies are enforcing upon our chip manufacturers.
What better chip to use than one that the Russian government assumes is only going to be used by loyal compatriots anyway? Anyway, that sounds like something a Russian spy would say, so make of it what you will.
I'd contemplate buying it if it had less binary blobs in it than an Intel or an AMD does. But maybe we don't have to go to Russia for that, as it feels like PC compliant ARM builds are going to be a thing soon.
