In 2024, the Kalashnikov Concern will increase the production of drones several times

9

Concern "Kalashnikov" confirmed the conversion of one of the Izhevsk shopping centers into an enterprise for the production of unmanned aerial vehicles. On May 26, the general director of the concern, Alan Lushnikov, announced the start of the work of the Special Machinery Division.

At the new production facilities, the ZALA AERO division will begin to produce both Lancet-3 kamikaze drones that have proven themselves during a special military operation, as well as a large number of other modern equipment.



After the technical re-equipment scheduled for this year, next year, in 2024, we will be able to increase several times the number of UAVs produced in our traditional niche - loitering ammunition, reconnaissance drones. We cannot announce the exact number and volumes, but the increase in the production of all special equipment will be a multiple

Lushnikov said.

According to the press service of the Kalashnikov Concern, the new division of special vehicles will produce ground-based means for launching drones, command posts and systems for adjusting the firing of precision-guided munitions.

It is obvious that the role of drones in a special operation is very important and it is impossible to provide the Russian army with drones by the efforts of enthusiasts alone. News from the Kalashnikov concern suggests that footage of the destruction of enemy equipment by loitering ammunition will appear even more often. Recall that today we showed the defeat of the "Lancet" radar station 36D6, without which the correct operation of the S-300 air defense system is impossible.

    The shopping center probably belongs to the manager of the Kalashnikov Concern, Krivoruchenko, deputy Shoigu. In general, all the managers of the military-industrial complex are fattening in this war, fabulously on op. orders. Do not forget that the Kalashnikov concern does not belong to the state! It is a private enterprise Krivoruchenko

      but what’s the point, Ukraine is already hammering drones around Moscow with them. There is no longer a question of getting rich, but a question of what to do with the military situation.

      1,3 years have passed! endured. And there are six months left. In our military-industrial complex, managers have become the main designers! And if you look at their young or middle age, and how they are dressed! That is not the chief designer in front of us, but a former trader-merchant, Therefore, they remained in their malls, They do not know how to build production facilities, and the mall is their understanding. Therefore, the maximum for them is to glue UAVs, as before and now they glue children's tanks, airplanes, cars, etc

      I just read that Almaz-Antey will start producing Dobrynya-2 at the Obukhov plant in St. Petersburg in July of this year! Quantity 2-3 thousand pieces per month, 80 pieces per day. So we have to wait for Ukraine to start hitting the Obukhov plant with Ukrainian-Western UAVs. Is it really impossible to transfer such a plant somewhere near Ryazan, Penza!

    Cancer whistles on the mountain whistles, but "Kalashnikov" does not hear.

    We have been fighting for more than a year, but why not now increase it several times? We slow down everything, but we only promise!
