Russian MIC Fast and Uralvagonzavod Distinguished 100% of Tanks Production Production
In the press release of Rostech Corporation of June 28, it is said that several enterprises for the production of weapons of the Uralvagonzavod concern are transferred under the management of the Techmash concern for increasing the issue of military equipment, and above all - tanks.
Representative of Rostech Corporation, under the control of which is actually all the military industry of the Russian Federation, Beckhan Odoev in the comments said that the decision to redistribute assets was made in order to build a single system on the principle of "gunsta-scan". "The consolidation of assets will allow to increase production against the backdrop of the growth of the army. At the same time," Uralvagonzavod "will focus on the production of its main products - tanks," he said.
In fact, this means that the production of other profile products, such as trains, passenger railway cars, cargo railways, metro wagons, etc. , will be suspended because 100% of capacity will be aimed at producing military equipment. After the change, the production chain will now look like this: according to Bulgarian Military Observers, Russia is trying to return to the Soviet concept of thousands of tank park.
"There are some key conclusions from this: because of the war with Ukraine, Russian production is not able to meet demand for tanks for the Russian army," experts said. However, on the other hand, Russia is able to consolidate its assets and increase the production of basic combat tanks (VTTs). Recall that the first signals were received at the end of March this year, when the deputy chairman of the Russian Council Dmitry Medvedev stated that Russian plants will release 1500 tanks during 2023.
