[REGNUM] During the military operation in Syria, the Russian military tested more than 320 types of various weapons, including helicopters, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said at a meeting with the labor collective of the Rostvertol company.

"We have checked more than 320 types of different weapons, including, by the way, your helicopters," said Shoigu.

"One of the helicopters that we saw today is the result of the Syrian operation," he added.

According to the head of the Russian military department, the helicopters that the enterprise is now producing, as a result of their combat use in Syria, "have undergone major changes."

At the same time, he noted that the guarantee of the safety of equipment and helicopters is their weapons, which are more long-range than the enemy's air defense systems.

"Today we have such weapons. And this is thanks to the operation in Syria, thanks to you, those who are involved in this," Sergei Shoigu said to the employees of Rostvertol.
