"Ukrainian engineers reliably developed software for Boeing space and
military programmes."

Right. I guess if only a fractional percentage of crews buy the farm,
that's "successful" in an Orwellian sense.

Tsk tsk. I was never accused of outright sabotage, just arrogance. That I
considered it something of a victory if, during daily production meetings,
I was able to glower so fiercely and icily at the Commies when they dared
speak that those assembled heard the faint trickle of urine coursing down a
pant leg probably contributed to that perception by some nontrivial degree.

Remember your story about being accused of making changes, whereas the
problem turned out to be a network cable under a spiked mat?

I believe you were more or less accused of sabotage in that one.

That wasn't a Dot Commie, that was just an underinformed windbag. He
was so ragingly bitter at the world for underappreciating him that his
reaction to anything, based as it was so often in an alternate reality,
was a statistical outlier.

Brief diversionary Vigo story:
The guy that sat across the aisle from windbag (named "Jim") brought
cut-up fruit to eat every day, with clockwork dependability. That the
fruit always seemed to be almost totally immersed in water, and that Jim
would drink off this water with apparent gusto, was odd, but no more odd
that anything else Jim did.

(meta Vigo story: Jim's job was to perform merge/purge and data appends
on customer jobs. Every work order was supposed to include the
salesperson's name as well as the customer name. In the case of one
job, it included the customer's address, but not the name. The
salesperson's last name was "McFeeley." Jim, in a fit of pique, decided
to prove a point and not simply call Ms. McFeeley for the customer name,
but enter it himself as "McTouchy and McFeeley." The customer was
decidedly unamused.)

One afternoon, a fellow data processor asked Jim for a piece of his
fruit, and in that manner common to most idiots, plucked it from the
container before waiting for his response. It was only then that the
"water" in which the fruit floated was revealed to be vodka. Despite
the fact that the data processors were some of the higher paid people in
the company because of their irrational per-job bonus structure, they
had an almost IWW-like mistrust of management, so Jimbo's secret
remained until after he quit.

My point of this discursive tale? If Jimbo had shared his fruit with
windbag, windbag might've been less angry at the world.

As to the changes-versus-sabotage, I guess I've always put that in a
different category. Many people, especially the Dot Commies, frequently
inquired in that most irritating "did you change x?" manner as to
whether or not I had changed x, y, or z and was that change was
responsible for customers performing self-immolation in vast numbers.
As bothersome as that was, even the smelliest of the Commies never
really made those accusations suggesting sabotage, but mostly in the
spirit of breathless arrogance and disregard for others not of my lofty
level of talent that I evinced.
