"In 2023, we worked actively, held 16 exhibition campaigns in Russia and abroad, during which we demonstrated to our foreign partners more than 800 full-scale samples and full-scale models of modern Russian military equipment. As for financial results, we fully met our targets, and the order portfolio reached a record high in the 23 years of the company’s operation and amounted to more than $55 billion," Mikheev told reporters during the World Defense Show trade fair in Riyadh.
"Most of our partners assess the unilateral sanctions of individual countries against Russia, the national defense industry and Rosoboronexport in particular as illegitimate instruments of competition, a means of the West supporting its own producers. However, the whole world sees that Russian weapons are superior to Western models on the battlefield, and the choice becomes obvious," he added.
