In a recent statement, Denis Manturov, the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and Deputy Prime Minister, emphasized that the Russian defense industry fully and effectively supports the country’s armed forces, including its aviation, navy, and ground troops. Manturov made these remarks during his participation in the “Knowledge.First” marathon at the “Russia” exhibition, according to RIA Novosti.
Manturov assured the audience that the defense industry consistently and meticulously provides the armed forces with cutting-edge weaponry. He also highlighted that many foreign experts rightfully recognize Russia’s defense industry as the most advanced in the world.
In October, military expert Igor Korotchenko stated that the Russian government’s decision to grant the defense industry the authority to utilize all reserves, including mobilization capabilities, to increase artillery production volumes, is necessary to fulfill all objectives of the military operation in Ukraine.
Earlier, Defense Minister Sergey Shoygu provided details about Russia’s military exercises in Ukraine.
