The Moscovites had a computer design+manufacturing site for many, many years. It even has a dedicated metro station. Site could use a bit of renovation+paint, but I guess it would not be Russian if it were glitzy.
Russian intelligence lives under a bit of dust and petrol haze.
In Zelenograd, outside Moscow, they have a limited semiconductor manufacturing capability.

If not, there is always the Surgeon General with a syringe of sedative.
