"Need even more": Putin ordered to increase the production of drones - Roszmi

By order of the President of the Russian Federation, Rostech plans to increase the production of Kub and Lancet drone, which the Russian army uses in the war against Ukraine. The President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin has instructed Rostekh to increase the production of drones "CUB" and "Lancet", which attack the goal by self -exploration, Tars reports. In meeting with Rostech's head, Sergei Chemezov, Putin said that these drones were highly efficiency.

"The blow is powerful-any equipment, including foreign production, is not just burning, but also exploding ammunition," he said. Chemezov said that the volumes of weapons and military equipment produced by Rostekh are completely satisfied with all the requests of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. However, according to Putin, the percentage of the output of the latest weapons should be higher. He referred to as "lanceotes", but also tanks T-90m "Breakthrough".

Putin noted that Russian manufacturers cope with production growth, but it takes even more. "Manufacturers promised me that they would increase the amount of production. They cope with this promise, but we still need to increase," the President of the Russian Federation said.

During the war against Ukraine, the Russian army regularly attacks important Ukrainian objects, using not only rockets, but also drones, among them, especially on hearing, Iranian Shahd and Russian "Lancet", which are essentially controlled ammunition. During July 31 - August 6, 2023, the Armed Forces soldiers destroyed 34 Lancet UAVs. We will remind, on August 7, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Iran Amir Hosin stated that Tehran did not supply Moscow drones.
