Well the Saturn V wasn't exactly advanced compared to a V2.


Sigh. the Saturn V was a Model A. The V2 was a model T. Both
designed in the days of slide rules, and poor metalurgy. Tube
electronics and crude plastics. Do you have anything useful to say?

They were both more or less the same.
However the Russians did have significantly more advanced rocket
engines.


They built bigger engines, typical of Russian designs. Scale up
something, then everthing else needed the same.

You don't know much do you?


Do you know anything? Have you ever seen their tools, or how about
the engines they built for their cargo ships.


They actually made smaller engines, it was NASA that scaled them up.
The Russians redesigned them to get more thrust from the same size.

They did build a bigger rocket, they could do this as they had more
thrust
available from their better engines.


Really? Do you always state the ovbvious? Their first rockets were
smaller than the US rockets so they didn't need the additional thrust.

Not obvious enough for you to understand it appears.
