He noted that the «ceiling» of the Russian «defense industry» is still very high, therefore, the military-industrial complex will produce as many weapons and military equipment as required.

The production of certain types of products has increased tenfold. And it continues to increase many times over every year.  For particularly sought-after models of weapons and military equipment, we are ahead of schedule - in the first six months we delivered 65% of the annual plan to the troops. The West is shocked by our pace.
