There is also this unit the Max7000 which can be configured to multi instruments I suspect including a RTA and quality VNA as well as the scope

"The MAX70000 series of time domain workstations are software-definable measuring instruments based on data acquisition and analysis systems and arbitrary signal synthesis. Equipped with the "Phoenix" chipset of RIGOL's independent intellectual property rights, it has four 4GHz analog bandwidth receiving channels and four 5GHz analog bandwidth transmitting channels, and can be flexibly configured into a variety of high-performance instruments according to customer applications."

I would not want to rely on Keysight service in North Korea or Iran.

With these scopes, it is not just the scope itself, but also the active probes - not sure if they are compatible with a major brand.

Once established it can be attractive to small US companies too, that don't get a special corporate rebate.

I could not agree more but, what kind of money is there Iran and North Korea? Other than some crazy dudes saying they're developing nuclear weapons (all regime propaganda IMHO). I understand companies must grow and achieve bigger markets but, this seems to me such a big step forward... I mean, they've not polished the firmware for the MSO5000 yet...

In Portuguese we've a say: the wider the step, the bigger the fall.

Love how they made a point of that - an appeal to customers concerned about possible American export/sales restrictions?

You'd crazy if you did.

You'd be surprised how much stuff from the US gets exported to those countries. In the era when the USSR was still a thing US manufacturers would even go so far as to implemented features required by the KGB for monitoring purposes.
