The consequence of economic sanctions imposed by the world's leading powers on the aggressor country is a significant decline in the military-industrial complex of Russia.
Having lost a significant part of their military and technical potential during the war in Ukraine, the Russians are already forced to supply 50-60 years of production and equipment to units that have suffered irreparable losses.
However, this situation does not embarrass the Kremlin leadership, it does not care how much and on what to send "cannon fodder" in the fight for the future of the "Russian world". There will always be something that has been rusting for decades in warehouses and that even third world countries did not want to buy at the time.
Most of the long-term storage warehouses cannot even be delivered to the units. However, the military is forced to accept it and report to the command on the full staffing and provision of combat units.
During April, the following were removed from the storage bases of the Russian Federation:
- 18 ACS "Msta-C" from the arsenal of missile and artillery weapons of the Eastern All-Ukrainian Union (Ussuriysk, Primorsky Krai);
- 28 Acacia ACS from the 94th arsenal of the GRAU (Omsk);
- 15 ACS “Msta-S”, 5 ACS “Acacia” and 20 ACS “Carnation” from the arsenal of complex storage of RAW (Gagarinsky, Sverdlovsk region);
- 15 MLRS "Hurricane" and 11 TRK "Point-U" from the 109th arsenal of GRAU (Battery, Irkutsk region).
Restoration of combat capability and manning of troops of the Western All-Ukrainian Union is carried out, inter alia, at the expense of armaments and military equipment removed from storage of 239 mobilization deployment centers (Boguchar).
Now the rusty and rotten military-technical echo of the Kremlin's "great past" is becoming the basis of Russia's "present."
