The defense department pointed out that the production of tanks has also increased by 5.6 times. Enterprises included in the country's military-industrial complex have increased the production of infantry fighting vehicles by 3.6 times and armored personnel carriers by 3.5 times. The production of drones has increased by 16.5 times.

During an expanded board meeting held at the end of December, the head of the Russian Ministry of Defense, Sergei Shoigu, said that Russian military personnel are fully supplied with ammunition.

Russian engineers are developing new ammunition or modernizing Soviet models. For example, Soviet FAB-250 aerial bombs were installed on winged platforms, which increased the range of projectile planning up to 80 km.

In addition, Uralvagonzavod created high-explosive fragmentation shells "Telnik", which can be used by crews of T-90M tanks.
