Moscow, January 12 (Xinhua) — More than 1,000 new and upgraded military equipment have been tested on the front lines in 2025, Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov said Monday at a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
According to Vladimir Putin, the manufacturing sectors of the Russian industry “have demonstrated good results for 2025.”
D. Manturov noted that the Russian satellite constellation “increased its number from 288 to 300 spacecraft” by 2025.
According to him, the state corporation Roscosmos carried out 17 launches of space rockets last year.
The First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian government singled out the launch of the Angara-A5 rocket from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome. "It launched a satellite for the Ministry of Defense into geostationary orbit. I can say that previously we could only perform such missions from the Baikonur Cosmodrome."
The next stage, according to D. Manturov, will be the large-scale use of the Angara from the Vostochny Cosmodrome, including for tasks related to the Russian orbital station, and subsequently for manned spaceflight and for carrying out lunar missions, which are reflected in the national program, the national project "Cosmos."
While the peak volume of Russian arms exports before 2022 was $55 billion, it has now reached $70 billion under signed contracts. "This is a record," the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.
Starting in 2026, Russia will begin providing Earth remote sensing imagery services in a new way, he added. –0–
