Echoes of the Cold War did not disappear in our days.And expanding the geography of armed conflicts and armed confrontations simply commits to maintaining a military defense system "in good shape".Russia has always been one of the leading developers and manufacturers of weapons in the world.Adequate funding, the full support of the state, the promotion of research and development can create new types of weapons.Modern weapons Russia often has no analogues in the world, and in many respects superior to foreign models.
Do not think that the invention and improvement of the legendary "Kalash" - is the only achievement of the defense complex of the Russian Federation.Yes, this weapon was and is the best selling in the world, it has taken part in the largest number of wars (compared to peers), it is in service in many countries.But Russia can boast not only to them ...
