Eight Russian companies hit the top 100 of the world's leading manufacturers of weapons

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute SIPRI has compiled a list of the hundred largest arms manufacturers for 2011 a year (due to the peculiarities of the research work, the institute publishes reports one year behind). The rating includes eight Russian enterprises, according to the organization’s website. At the same time, the total sales of global manufacturers for 2011 year compared with the previous year decreased by 5%.

United Aircraft Corporation (18-place), Almaz-Antey (22-place), United Aircraft Building Corporation "Sukhoi" (38-place), "Helicopters of Russia" (40-e place) , "United Engine Corporation" (61-e place), "United NPK" Uralvagonzavod them. Dzerzhinsky "(64-place)," NPK "Irkut" (68-e place) and "Radio Engineering and Information Systems" (69-e place).

The list was headed by two American and one British company - Lockheed Martin, Boeing and BAE Systems. The first is engaged in the manufacture of aircraft, electronics, rockets, as well as Boeing. Lockheed Martin rescued from the sale weapons more than 36 billions of dollars, Boeing - a little more than 31 billions of dollars, the British BAE Systems - 29 billions of dollars. Russian companies have earned a total of almost 19 billions of dollars, cites RBC figures.

44’s sales of US-based arms manufacturers totaled 60% of the total sales of listed companies 100, counts RIA "News"The share of sales of 30 manufacturers based in Western Europe was 29%. The total sales of all 100 manufacturers are estimated at 410 billion dollars, which is 5% less than in 2010 year.

The fall in arms sales could have been affected by the situation in conflict areas, such as a reduction in activity in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as sanctions on arms supplies to Libya, the report says. In order to remain competitive, companies have to cut staff and production, open branches in Latin America, Asia and the Middle East. Such an industry as the production of cyber security technologies is gaining popularity, SIPRI expert Susan Jackson said.

SIPRI ranks the largest weapon manufacturers since 1990 of the year. According to the footnote to the report, Russian companies are counted in it since 2001. However, due to lack of information, far from all existing enterprises of the Russian defense industry are taken into account. Also, due to the “lack of sufficiently accurate information”, China was completely excluded from the list.

Thus, the figures for 2011 for Russia turned out to be slightly worse than in 2010. Then more than 10 Russian enterprises entered the rating. The Russian Air Defense Concern Almaz-Antey occupied the 20 line.

I apologize for being off topic, but the news is interesting:

Hugo Chavez is back at home
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez announced on Twitter his return to the country after treatment for cancer in Cuba. He noted that he would continue treatment at home. Chavez separately thanked the current leader of Cuba, Raul Castro, and the former head of the country, Fidel Castro, for his support, and also remembered all the doctors and nurses who took care of him during the entire period of treatment.

I hope his health is recovering if he returns to his homeland. Comandante -

Hugo Chavez is back at home

Cuba uses Kremlin technology in its medicine. I don’t remember the details, but there was a transmission about it, since the times of the USSR, a doctor from Kremlin doctors who used secrets has worked in Cuba, so Fidel is still alive, and Hugo is constantly defeating cancer, and some more Latin presidents were treated in Cuba.
and by the way, I don’t remember the details again, the Kremlin’s Kremlin technology was transferred to Belarus by medicine when the USSR collapsed, there were several coincidences that it was after visiting Lukashenko of some Latin country when all the illnesses of their presidents were cured.

Naturally, there were exchanges. Fidel is alive, however, because Cuban health care has not stood still since the collapse of the USSR. And Chavez does not go to Russia, but to Cuba.

And Chavez does not go to Russia, but to Cuba.

Probably wants to still be treated in the USA

Chavez decided to improve relations with the United States
Venezuelan Foreign Minister Elias Haua said that President Hugo Chavez instructed to take measures to improve relations with the United States. In particular, diplomats are going to intensify negotiations on the return of ambassadors: since 2010, there is no ambassador from the USA in Caracas, and from Venezuela in Washington ...

... well, at least so. It could be much worse. The most extreme option is to buy someone else’s weapon from behind a hill.
Full of examples - almost all civil aviation and vehicles - not domestic ...

Our companies have the potential to enter the top ten, but state leaders do not have the political will and strength to help them in this !!!

[Slevinst]

Rating is not surprised. It would be better to evaluate the combat power and survival on the battlefield. And this is the rating of managers

[old rocket man]

Slevinst,
More precisely, this is a sales level rating.

Let’s analyze our colleagues! 60% USA -29% EU?

[Masterzserg]

"So buy it !!!!" We need to actively buy weapons and the most advanced, but then it turns out that the modernization of old weapons will be another scam of Serdyuchkov.

[ivansaxonov]

pogis, this article refers to the percentage of sales of exactly 100 companies included in the rating.

And what is this "cardan" between the nozzles on the aircraft layout? Maybe someone knows? And then on the battle like you can't see such a tailbone.

There he has an auxiliary power unit, installation of false thermal targets and a brake parachute. There is no rear hemisphere radar.

Still, Amers know how to make money, you need to take an example with him. If they had such a technique that everyone loves to burn on our site so much, and they wouldn’t have a chance to fantasize how ours would kill them all for one or two. such export. And you don’t need to drag politics, it certainly matters, but we also have our importers and allies.

They have a sophisticated and effective technique in battles with the Indians. Take for example abrams. Saw at least one photo or video where he is beaten crumpled but continues to fight? But I didn’t see such a rush from Syria. A t 72 old man already. Military equipment must demonstrate survival in battle.

Read the entire list, please!

There are less than 200 independent states in our entire globe. How many of them are at least capable of harvesting spears on their own? What top STO can we talk about?))) Isn't it funny for you: "Stockholm International Peace Research Institute"))) took stsuko and made the top 100. Well, the chandelier was whinnying) Stockholm))) Did they smoke there cheli again? And here's another British scientists said ..)))
Boyars, turn on your head and write your own tops, well, at least 10) Or even five, three) And I’m sure we will be on the first roles there and it will be objective!

[patsantre]

Read the article carefully, and what’s there 100 states in general? And we didn’t even fit into 10k, it’s time to draw conclusions, and not to throw our hats.

[kirieeleyson]

This is the only thing in Sweden. About the same as our OBS (One Grandmother Said)

According to the International Academy of MASR, the joint government of the closed forces for preserving the independence of the moon has been implementing the technologies of the Chelyabinsk Institute of Applied Sciences named after Zhukov for five years in the direction of the process of counteracting the spread of hostile, associative stable associations in the direction of non-Earth adaptation on the thresholds of the development of GGTR and PTRK complexes. show mlyat) let there be a show

"Stockholm International Peace Research Institute"))) well be offended) Who are its founders? When was it created? What is famous for? Show is such a show)

[R1a1]

Quite recently, an article "Vikings - truth and fiction" was published here on the site. And what is remarkable again about the Swedes. Practically about the same "Stockholm International Peace Research Institute" only there it was even funnier. It can be seen that someone here is not indifferent to the Swedes breathing)

... and the fact that we have enough of our institutes, including international and Academies ... which write so much. Have time to read). Okay, I’ll be silent. And then again I will run into.

The Swedes made the top. They brought us into it) They removed their Viking horns, checked whether they dusted them in place, put them back on their heads) Wait for us to react? Well, how do we respond to their funny top? Well, somehow we react)

[solidol]

Estimating the armament costs in the USA and in Russia, I can’t help but wonder at the size of the peeling in advance .... A poorly flying plane for several yards of dollars, a tank with a charging Negro for more than 6 million dollars, rifles unsuitable for shooting after falling on sand. ... And with all this, Russian manufacturers take pride of place in the ratings .... Yes, holy people work in our defense industry ... As the sailors say: - we’ll catch the oars for such grandmothers ....

[Watchman]

Why is IZhmash not in the ranking?

[sashka]

It must be assumed that there is nothing to brag about .. Alas ..

It’s not clear .. Grieving or bragging .. ???

[Renat]

It seems that our weapons are not inferior to world manufacturers and contracts are signed almost every week, and the sales proceeds are not so high compared to the United States or England. Unclear.

[patsantre]

1) Their technique in itself is in many cases more expensive
2) Our equipment, for example, is unlikely to be bought by the EU or some Saudi Arabia. But we also have our own sales markets, which are not very open to the United States.
3) It is impossible not to admit that in many areas, UAVs, for example, we are far behind.
4) There is such a concentration of "s" on this site that adequately thinking people are once again afraid to argue with the local thesis "we will break everyone even on the technology of the USSR times !! 111", which gives the impression that our technology is generally out of competition. I don’t argue that we are leading in some areas, but not in such quantity as it might seem from reading this resource.

[sashka]

On "THIS" RESOURCE there are normal and decent PEOPLE .. It depends on how you "shout" .. The main thing for WHOM ???

Just the other day I watched a program in which a retired general said the following: when they handed me the Mosin rifle, they handed it to me with the words that in capable hands it is the most formidable weapon and I fought with it as with the best weapon. What is happening now .. now, from all TV channels from all media, people are hammered into their heads that we are producing bad weapons .. that everything is bad with us ... and when a fighter gets into the hands of an AK he already thinks that he was given a ram and that this is not the Winner's weapon ... what if he had an imported German assault rifle, then he would tear everyone like a hot water bottle ...
There are problems, no one denies all of us. We want the strongest Army .. because historically it happened that the Army is our everything ..
But how it drives into people's heads ... that everything is bad with us ... it’s generally strange that we still live.
PS.
for example, instead of wringing hands and sprinkling ashes on the head ..
you can specify the bourgeois technique ... say ... that would be so! or oh sorry we don’t have one!
and in place of this ... aah kampets .. they have a better jeep .. then everything is gone ... (I exaggerate a little of course).

[patsantre]

We have just the opposite situation, many people think that the amers and others, too, are making useless equipment, and that we do not even need to re-arm ourselves in order to "defeat everyone". This will not do anything good either.

Well, so they can "think" only well, in general, a little is not it is not enlightened people. Their fleet alone is worth something.

[patsantre]

So read the comments, many think that our Moscow will work their entire AUG in one gulp. Even if you do not pay attention to completely hopeless cases, many believe that we have parity with them ...

10 years destroyed and restored in a year? there are receipts of technology, of course, slowly, but is there? First you need to prepare the troops for new weapons. Much remains to be done ...

I read a lot of similar news and noticed the current trend: there were relatively a lot of equipment supplied to VOYSKA, but the Fleet had very few supplies ... I, of course, understand that it’s more difficult to build a ship, but it seems to me that this is not only the case; and namely: our doctrine is defensive, and the top leadership considers the fleet as the offensive type of troops, which is not entirely correct - just remember how many miles our borders go through the sea and the history in which the fleet carried out a huge number of defensive tasks, and finally, by the way , about representing their interests in the world - no one except the fleet can be somewhere far away for a long time.
In short, it’s even a shame to get around the fleet ...

As I write from the phone - so the Polish IPshnik constantly.

I compared, but the point is that tactics of combat have not been developed for the TFR, so it’s impossible to replace them with MRKs, and they, in turn, should be urgently modernized.
And for the submarine ... for a long time they are accepted into the composition (as much as 3-5 years) and the "old park" also requires modernization - although of course they are coming, but there are enough complaints about this work too.
