Russian chipmakers demonstrated new silicon designs, including RISC-V, Arm, and Elbrus-based hardware, at the ME26 exhibition in Sochi.
Roscosmos plans to equip new Soyuz-5 carrier rockets with domestic Elbrus processors by 2027 following a successful test flight in 2026.

A developer compared LLM-based instruction scheduling with greedy heuristics for the Elbrus VLIW architecture, finding that deterministic algorithms significantly outperform AI in speed and accuracy.

A developer explores direct vectorization of the FFT algorithm on Elbrus processors to improve performance through SIMD instructions and optimized memory streaming.
