Attacks on Kiev undermined Russian authority in the world market weapons
Russia tried to keep this tools as much as possible, providing modernization, service and ammunition for Soviet production techniques, gradually diluting it in Russian. Since there were not many cases of visual clash of high -tech (post) of Soviet weapons with Western, there was some incomprehensibility of efficiency. Because exhibitions and training are one thing, and the war is very clear. The Ukrainian army showed everything clearly: Russian analogues do not stand out for competition.
Russia, as a provider of a wide tool line, has undermined its authority. It is not technical and not economical - it is first and foremost a political failure. It de facto leaves from the Higher League and stands near a couple of dozens of other countries. The remnants of high -tech (ie expensive) Russian weapons will even after the end of the war in the narrowing market.
And in the niche of relatively simple, unpretentious and inexpensive weapons, which are the main tool in dialogue with poor countries, there will be competition with the same China. This does not mean that Russia will fail tomorrow in this area. The Russians are also studying in war as we do. Russian Reb/Rer, Drones and Bading Ammunition, Armored vehicles - are still tested in battle, as on our part. The interest in these products by third countries will be. But Comrade Lavrov will not be welcomed.
