Production stopped: West hit the GLONASS program

14
Serial production of K-series satellites for the domestic GLONASS system will be suspended. This decision was made by the Government of the Russian Federation due to the lack of imported spare parts.





Recall that components for the Russian navigation system are under EU sanctions, in view of the fact that the latter can be used not only for civilian, but also for military purposes. Plus, in 2018, the United States also stopped licensing dual-use products intended for export to the Russian Federation.

According to the conclusion of the Accounts Chamber on the draft amendments to the federal budget for 2019, expenses under the program “Maintaining, developing and using the GLONASS system for 2012-2020” will be reduced by 12,9 billion. It was decided that part of these funds in the amount of 6,9, 6 billion rubles will go to Roscosmos, and the remaining amount of XNUMX billion will be allocated to the implementation of the state program of the Ministry of Defense “Space Activities of Russia”.

However, the above does not mean that the Russian navigation system will completely lose funding. 7,05 billion rubles will be allocated for the program of replenishment and modernization of the GLONASS orbital group. In addition, thanks to the internal redistribution of funds, financing is being made for domestic design bureaus involved in the development of components for the purpose of import substitution.

    in fact, the replacement program for imported components has already been launched in 2018 and by 2023 there will be no import components left, those GLONASS-M, the last one will be sent in 2020, and there are still imported components in GLONASS-K, although their number is decreasing, and the last one should be launched in 23 year, the question is, did the mountain give birth to a mouse?

      ... but did the mountain give birth to a mouse?

      That's right.
      I looked through the Internet and it turned out that the main distributor of this "news" is RBC. That still pro-Western garbage. They very skillfully got the hang of distorting and altering any news.

    - In general, it would be high time for Russia to create several systems for the exact positioning of objects in space ...- at least two or three ...
    1. Glonass would have remained to control the territory of Russia.
    2. A new system for spying on our "friends" in the CSTO.
    3. The new system for world space.

    -The only way...
    -Of course there is a great danger that everything will be "cleared out" again, but somehow Russia must get out of the information blockade ...
    -Even somehow strange ... -Russia has more than half a century has its own Cosmos. And Russia cannot create a global system of global positioning ...
    - That's really true ... -with the USSR (under the Bolsheviks) they did not have time to create it, and the current government is simply not able to do it ...

    Still, they don’t leave the sensation by reading such opuses that the country is led by blindly deaf people, and even often without brains. Today everyone is apparently stealing; there is no time to look into tomorrow.

    I am very worried about the current government of the Russian Federation! With their not far-sighted decisions, they decided to ruin the domestic GLONAS. You could send all the money to the design bureaus, you can buy equipment in China. And in a quiet way they will kill GLONAS. Who will be responsible for the losses, because the satellites in orbit will not work even in scrap metal ...

      Before you write something, at least try to understand the issue. The collected satellites will last until the age of 23, work on import substitution of the filling in the satellites is already underway. Yandex to help you.

    Thank you, American imperialists! If it weren’t for you, all Russian technologies would be in a hole!

    Well, why do we announce the news so poorly? Stopped because there are not enough imported parts. Why not give the news something like this: in response to US sanctions, we stop the production and launch of GLONASS satellites, because foreign components were found in them. It sounds completely different.

      How the news was presented in the era of historical materialism. The race was won by an American, the Soviet runner came second. The announcer announces: "Our athlete finished second. The American came in next to last."
