Yeah, I thought this meant like UK was the keys to the allies getting a real foothold in Europe, America was the one providing the funding and Russia...
...is a cell phone?
I think I overthought this meme.
The Soviets did invent them.
Didn't some dude from Motorola do that?
Martin Cooper, but I think maybe UnderpantsWeevil was making a joke.
Edit: Nope, they were serious but it's not exactly what we'd think of as a cell phone as far as I can tell.

Cell phones were invented in America, weren't they?
Leonid Kupriyanovich, a Moscow engineer, developed a series of experimental pocket-sized radios in the 1950s and 1960s:
However, the Soviet bureaucracy prioritized using early cell phone research to develop car phones for the Soviet upper ranks instead of mass producing cell phones for the general public.

So should we give credit to people like Marconi and Tesla for inventing what we know today as the cell phone? I suppose the delineation isn't necessarily so clear.
For the telephone, certainly. And for a host of other radio-based technology. You should probably include Michael Faraday and James Maxwell.
But Kupriyanovich holds the patent on wireless telephones, specifically.
Got any links that shows pictures of all these devices? The article is kinda sparse but it sounds fascinating.
Russia is who you call. When you need them to come to war and bring 10 million of their closest friends.
