Where? Certainly not Elektron.

This makes me wonder just how much clout NASA has over the
Russian equipment that goes on the ISS. I would hope that they
are able to insist on some insight on the equipment, particularly
things such as safety hazards.


NASA has a history of hiding and covering up Russian safety
shortcomings. IIRC, JimO has a copy on his website of a report
documenting this.
