Russia postpones arms supplies abroad

The priority is supplying its own army

The supply of weapons and military equipment under export contracts is being forcibly postponed, with priority being given to their transfer to our own troops. This was announced by First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov.

According to him, the Russian defense industry receives a lot of requests from foreign buyers.

We are forced, naturally, giving priority to the tasks of the Ministry of Defense, to postpone plans for deliveries to our friendly countries somewhat, but this period is not far off, so we will definitely increase military-technical cooperation.
Denis Manturov, First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation

Manturov added that the military-industrial complex of Russia continues to increase the production of weapons and equipment, a number of new models are already on the way.

New capacities are being actively introduced, which, by the way, will be actively used, including for the development of new nomenclature, new weapons models. And a fairly wide list of nomenclature is on the way.
