He drew attention to the fact that about 30 centers for unmanned aviation systems have also opened in the regions of Russia.

We have also mastered the production of our own machines for automatic riveting of aircraft panels, as well as the production of other various high-tech products, including, for example, more than fifty promising chemical products and materials alone.
Mikhail Mishustin, Head of Government

In August, it became known that the first domestic automatic riveting complex for aircraft was installed at the Sokol Nizhny Novgorod Aircraft Building Plant (NAZ) .

Based on Mishustin's words, we are now talking about the serial production of such machines, which had no analogues in Russia before.
