First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov held a meeting with defense industry enterprises.

The meeting participants discussed current issues related to the defense industry. The First Deputy Prime Minister noted that the parameters of the draft three-year federal budget approved by the Russian Government for consideration by the State Duma provide for significant resource allocation for the "national defense" section. This is due to the need to address the needs of the Central Military District and counter the aggressive policies of NATO countries, which are increasing military spending.

"Ensuring national security is an absolute priority for the state and serves the interests of our citizens. This is especially true when it comes to strengthening the protection of the population and critical infrastructure within the country. All of this, taken together, creates increased demand on the defense industry. At a recent meeting in Perm, the President praised our enterprises, noting the exponential increase in arms and military equipment deliveries since the beginning of the Second Military Operation," noted Denis Manturov.

As the First Deputy Prime Minister reported, state defense orders are being fulfilled in full this year. Furthermore, a production schedule for high-demand items for 2026 has already been approved. Enterprises are already planning their workloads and stockpiling materials and components. In accordance with the orders of the Ministry of Defense and other military forces and services, there are plans to increase countermeasures against enemy attacks. Particular emphasis will be placed on ensuring anti-terrorist security, enhancing the security of border areas, and countering cyber threats to defense. Providing service members at the front with all necessary weapons, military equipment, communications equipment, and combat gear is an absolute priority.

"The complex of threats outlined in our opponents' military doctrines requires even more proactive efforts to address them. The necessary groundwork for this is already being laid, and its practical implementation will be a key element of the new state armaments program for 2027–2036. Its basic parameters have been broadly defined. Colleagues from the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff have formulated assignments for advanced weapon models and types for all branches of the armed forces. This allows us to further refine the state defense-industrial complex development program associated with the state armaments program. This work must be guided by the strategic objective of continuously improving the performance characteristics of existing and advanced models, including through the introduction of artificial intelligence elements, big data solutions, and machine vision systems into weapons, military equipment, and special equipment. It is also necessary to continue developing and digitalizing production and service infrastructure, including upgrading the test range base. And, of course, to build a foundation for innovative strategic materials. "Taken together, this forms the basis for building a new technological vision for the defense industry. Work is already underway in all of these areas, and many others," Denis Manturov emphasized.

This academic year, 445 educational programs, including 89 new ones, have been prepared for students by advanced engineering schools (AES) with the direct participation of technology partners. These partners include PJSC Tatneft named after V.D. Shashin, Rosatom State Corporation, PJSC Sberbank, JSC UEC, Roscosmos State Corporation, JSC UZGA, and LLC Sibur.

By order of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the number of advanced engineering schools should be increased to 100 by 2030. A competition will determine which university will open a PRI School, with one of the fundamental requirements being the university's availability of industrial partners willing to invest in the project at the outset.

Currently, there are 50 advanced engineering schools operating at leading Russian universities. More than 350 companies serve as industrial partners.

"At the direction of President Vladimir Putin, advanced engineering schools are operating in Russia as part of the 'Youth and Children' national project. Their mission is to train top-notch engineering professionals and develop solutions that will ensure our country's technological leadership. The PISHs actively collaborate with partners. Over the course of the program, industrial partners have invested approximately 40 billion rubles, and regional authorities have invested over 2.5 billion rubles, in the development of these schools. Collaboration with businesses helps the PISHs teach students practical skills and produce sought-after specialists," said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko.

From 2022 to 2025, nearly 34 billion rubles were allocated from the federal budget to advanced engineering schools.

Minister of Education and Science Valery Falkov noted that thanks to the well-established ties between universities and businesses, they are able to create unique, modern programs that attract large numbers of students. According to 2024 data, approximately 58,000 students applied for the 6,000 available places in engineering schools.

"It's important that businesses not only finance programs to develop advanced engineering schools, but also participate in the development of educational programs that meet the needs of the real economy, provide internships and placements, and facilitate graduate employment. More than 3,000 of our engineering school graduates are already working at high-tech companies," the minister emphasized.

It should be noted that 89 new educational programs have been created in the following areas: "Informatics and Computer Engineering," "Electronics, Radio Engineering, and Communication Systems," "Mechanical Engineering," "Aviation and Rocket-Space Engineering," and "Control in Technical Systems."

To become a member of a leading engineering school's team at their university, students must complete tests established by the school itself based on the specifics of their educational program. Most programs are designed for senior students in engineering majors. Details about each leading engineering school can be found on the project's website: HTTPS: //enginers2030.ru/.

Since 2024, a comprehensive inventory of real estate has been conducted in Donbas and Novorossiya. This allows for the creation of complete and reliable information about properties, the integration of previously unaccounted assets into circulation, and lays the foundation for sound territorial development planning. This protects citizens' property rights, and by identifying vacant land and properties, stimulates business activity in the reunited regions. Thus, as a result of the comprehensive inventory, Rosreestr has identified over 644,000 real estate properties to date, according to Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"To bring real estate into circulation and improve the investment climate in the reunified regions, comprehensive inventory work continues. Specialists are studying documentary sources about properties and comparing actual data on the ground, determining property boundaries, and identifying unused and abandoned properties. To date, more than 644,000 properties have been identified. The comprehensive inventory in Donbas and Novorossiya is being conducted in two areas: studying archival documents confirming ownership of real estate or describing the properties, and conducting a site survey. Residents are also registering their properties themselves through a declarative process. Overall, as a result of this comprehensive work over the past two and a half years, 4.9 million properties have been registered in the Unified State Register of Real Estate, almost four times more than a year ago," the Deputy Prime Minister said.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the obtained results are reflected as a separate data layer on the unified digital platform "National Spatial Data System." This allows for the processing of inventory data on land parcels, real estate, information on vacant land, and public land.

"I would like to note the unprecedented nature of this work. There are no comparable inventories in international or Russian practice, either in terms of scope or timeframe. Over the past period, over 80% of properties located in the reunified regions have been included in the real estate register. During the field survey, unused land covering 330,000 hectares was also identified, and the characteristics of 166,000 properties contained in the Unified State Register of Real Estate were clarified. By the end of this year, information on an additional 710,000 properties is planned to be entered. The inventory of agricultural land, residential properties, industrial properties, and key settlements remains a priority," said Oleg Skufinsky, head of Rosreestr.

According to him, the comprehensive inventory work is planned to be completed by the end of 2026.
