“This is one of the important areas where we will work with the Ministry of Defense and our industrial enterprises, increasing both competencies and production volumes,” TASS quotes Manturov.
According to him, the production of communications equipment will also be increased, which ensure interaction at the tactical and operational levels, heavy and light armored vehicles, air defense equipment and equipment for counter-battery warfare.
It was previously reported that Russia plans to produce more than 32 thousand aircraft drones per year by 2030.
