Putin: defense companies must be prepared for increased competition in the global arms market

Enterprises of the Russian defense industry should be prepared to intensify competition with other countries due to the intensification of Russia's efforts in the field of military-technical cooperation, reports RIA News Statement by Vladimir Putin at the meeting of the MTC Commission.

"Domestic weapon and military equipment prove their effectiveness, reliability in a variety of conditions. They are in service in Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America. It is important that the geography of supplies is consistently expanding, new intergovernmental agreements are being signed, and bilateral working groups are being created, ”said the President of the Russian Federation.

“At the same time, it is necessary to further improve the effectiveness of military-technical cooperation, to act in this area more clearly and more coordinatedly. At the same time, it is necessary to be prepared for the fact that the intensification of our efforts will certainly exacerbate competition. In this regard, I would like to thank the Russian arms exporters, who, under the conditions of tough competition, are successfully working in the new realities, adequately react to the sometimes unfair actions of our opponents ”,

He stressed.

He also noted that Russia is currently investing in advanced military technology and expanding the range of exported weapons.

“Russia is investing in the development of advanced defense technologies, expanding the range of products supplied: from small arms to the latest means of air and sea combat, which can change the ratio in any theater of military operations,” said Vladimir Putin.

Competitors bother everyone. And in the war, as you know, all means are good. It is necessary to take an example from the Americans, never stand on ceremony: business, nothing personal.

Yeltsin's reforms in the 90s 2016-07-10
Almost everyone in our country, who is now over 30, remembers what our country looked like in the 90s. Millions of unemployed, total devastation and poverty, closed production. As a result of privatization, unique factories fell into the hands of criminal authorities. In total, according to independent experts, during the reforms of the 90s, more than two hundred and fifty defense enterprises were destroyed in Russia, all of which was not accidental. The destruction of the industry of our country was planned. Many enterprises were introduced foreign shareholders, which could strategically influence their management. Everything was done in order to eliminate our defense industry, liquidate the army and turn Russia exclusively into a source of raw materials ...
Everyone remembers how the Russian army looked in the 90s. Abandoned military units, and like extinct military towns. And all because many military facilities in the 90s were not needed by anyone, they were reduced. But even those that remained looked deplorable.

And I remember how at the end of the 80s (88-89), at the suggestion of such "scribblers" as A. Borovik, they began to change the opinion of the people about their armed forces. All of his articles were crammed with humiliation of our army and navy and praise of the American armed forces. In those days, the most "mild" epithet addressed to the military was dismissive "warriors". The people began to believe that the military are parasites who do nothing, only "tough" salaries receive. I heard everything with my ears and saw the attitude towards our husbands and us, their families. It was painful, words cannot convey.

Not only the military, in those disgusting times, called themselves "scoops", but Russia "rashka". As you remember, you shudder. I tell my grown-up children how they lived in the USSR, they don't believe so.

... depending on how you look at this definition ... for example, to this day I’m still a scoop, padded jacket and colorado ... what I am proud of ... and so offhand ...

The foundation was laid back under Gorbachev, that is, at the final stage of the existence of the USSR ...

They started kicking the army under him ...

And this Judas-lyceum again crawled out onto the political stage, with his own advice on how to behave in relations with Russia by Russia ...

It’s a pity that the Berlin Wall didn’t overwhelm you in due time ...

[spinner]

What has changed now? A new wave of privatization is being prepared, the remainder will be sold. By the way, most of the plants were closed precisely under Putin. Do not blame everything on Yeltsin.

[hirurg]

It is necessary to plow, which the defense industry has been doing recently. KEEP IT UP!!!

[Khariton]

As I understand it, defense industry enterprises should be ready for urgent evacuation into the country ... And in a new place (undercover) start producing military products within a month .. (remember the 41st ..?)

[Secondly,]

That's right, after successes in Syria, just right not to get lost in the background of the rest of the world. As they say it’s important to get to the top, but more importantly to stay on it!

What success ??? Barmaleev can not drive away from the palmyra from Damascus, where are the successes ??

Hmm ... As they tested their old weapons, they showed the whole world the possibilities of a new one ...

Caliber starts from the surface and underwater position ...
The use of tactical and strategic aviation ...
Creation of the so-called "Dome" by means of electronic warfare ...

Yes, in the end, they themselves saw that our army and navy mean something ... After so many years of devastation, is this not a success ???

[Mountain shooter]

Competition is NOT fair. And only more or less civilized. Now the rules are "swept under the rug." Stripes do not even hide their goals. Remove a competitor, at any cost.

[Sergey-72]

One of the tasks set at the NATO summit was just to take away as many military orders from us as possible. You need to ring less to the whole world about the amount of money cut down in this field, and quietly increase your success. Customers interested in our weapons will find us themselves, and will also be in line. It is just that the mavpa, having climbed off the palm tree and imagining itself as the "navel of the Earth", really has an impact on most governments.

In other words, if that go on a military track.

Hmm ... Such thieves and stupid organizations (black holes) like Skolkovo and NANO seem to be dispersed ... So at least this huge money can be spent on the defense industry and defense ...

And as for the government ... Damn, the government will redirect these cash flows ...

[Tambov Wolf]

So, not to prepare for a future war, but to stuff money with pockets. Then why did you cut the military budget? What, again, this money will go into the pocket of the oligarchs, and not into the army? Again, the Saudis will sell new equipment, but will they wait for theirs? Interesting girls are dancing.

Due to export sales, the defense industry will be able to get the missing money for its development, which is cut in the budget ...

Yes, in general, consider that due to this, our defense industry complex was reborn after the collapse ...
Remember how tightly the first developments-developments and the production of new equipment went ... Everywhere and everywhere the problems were precisely due to lack of money ...

[Banishing liberoids]

Only here the concept of "unfair competition" has not been canceled by someone alas.

[Knight Rider]

Our defenders sometimes are not given visas to England and France - an example of unfair competition from the West. But our military exports are growing from year to year!
Well, the news of the last hour:
Frigate "Admiral Makarov" transferred to factory sea trials

[Zomanus]

Well, the more we sell weapons abroad,
the more we recapture the costs of arming the Russian army.
So that's right, you need to sell more.
