Actually they reinvented the wheel a little bit by being the first spacecraft that used cryogenic propellant for a multi day mission/moon landing. When you look into it, what they've achieved is still very impressive, even if NASA did much of the heavy lifting.

Petr not based any more? That's a shame
Sure looks like it.

I'd like to know that too. Baby grasshopper maybe?
Exactly. Would be a shame if it goes to waste. But it sure seems pretty doomed.
"During the operation, an abnormal situation occurred on board the automatic station, which did not allow the manoeuvre to be performed with the specified parameters," Roskosmos said in a short statement.
Monday will bring some answers.
/edit Nevermind. It's gone
Thanks!
ESA's PILOT-D navigation demonstration camera was planned to be flown on this mission, but is already being procured from a commercial service provider and will fly along with them on their mission,[27] due to continued international collaboration having been thrown into doubt by the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and related sanctions on Russia.[28][29] The demonstrative instrument was supposed to collect data for the landing of other missions and was therefore not part of the probe's operating system.[30]
Doesn't sound like it was a critical part of the mission.
pork barrels
I don't doubt that
While it's expensive, it's only too expensive if someone else does the same cheaper. In terms of payload mass the only competition is Starship. Starship is still in development and has no successful launches, while SLS has 100% success rate with one launch. So if you want your heavy stuff, or people even, to get into space safely you better hand over the money to NASA.
