[Regnum] As part of the special operation, the Mechanical Engineering Design Bureau significantly increased the production of missiles for the Iskander-M operational-tactical reactor complex. This was announced on April 7 by the general designer of KBM (part of the "High-Precision Complexes") Valery Kashin on the air of the "Military Acceptance " program. "Missiles are being produced in much larger quantities than in previous years," he said in response to a corresponding question. As Regnum reported, on March 22, the state corporation Rostec announced a multiple increase in the production of FAB-500 aerial bombs after the reactivation of capacities. Deputy Chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said on February 22 that the Russian military-industrial complex has established supplies of armored vehicles to the troops in maximum volumes. According to him, the production of ammunition has increased by 1000—1500%. The Deputy Chairman of the Security Council added that the domestic defense industry has passed the test of a special operation and has proven itself to be the best. The press service of the Russian Ministry of Defense reported on January 30 that the plan for the production of Kalibr cruise missiles has been fulfilled by 17% since the beginning of the year. The military department emphasized that this happened despite the doubling of the plan. On Gunsmith's Day in September 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that enterprises of the domestic military-industrial complex have maintained a stable pace of work and have increased production output in certain areas. The head of state emphasized that the production volume of the main types of armored vehicles has more than doubled. |
