Defence-Industrial Sector of ARM MOD
Brief Historical Data
The Freedom-Fight of Artsakh, the collapse of the USSR and the declaration of independence by the Republic of Armenia are those decisive factors, which became the bases for the creation of the defence-industrial complex of the Republic.
The Government of the newly independent Republic and its defence-industrial committee put the process of development and production of armament and samples of military-technical means on a state level. On a state level started the purposeful financing of the development of productions of defence importance, the creation of industrial technologies, and the production in the factories of the defence-industrial complex.
The military-technical service of the work, the control over the work quality, and the organization of experiments passed under the responsibilities of the ARM Milistry of Defence. The Ministry was directly implementing the defence-industrial sector – ARM MoD Department of Defence-Industry, 1993
The basic functions of the Defence-Industry Department:
- development of armaments, military equipment, and samples of military-technical means, design of state orders of producing special products, control over the work quality, repair and modernization of armament, military equipment and military-technical means in the factories of the ARM defence-industrial complex,
- elaboration of annual and long-term armament improvement programs,
- ensuring the military-technical component of the MoD cooperation with foreign countries, etc.
Technical Bases
The normative, technical, chief, and legal documents transferred to the ARM MoD became bases in regulating the activities of the ARM MoD defence-industrial sector, in developing armament, military equipment, and military-technical means, and in appropriately organizing the responsible production process. On these bases managing documents of the national defence-industrial sector were developed.
Today the present normative-technical base is sufficient for ensuring a joint defence-technical policy.
Today the selection diapason of armament, military equipment, military-technical means is quite broad. It includes complex equipment, products, as well scientific radio-electronic and apparatus-programmatic complexes and systems.
In the samples developed since 1993 one can distinguish the following armament and military equipment compound fruits:
Machine-guns, snipers rifles, armored automatic guns, small diameter bullets, battalion mines, anti-tank grenade, grenades, engineering weapons, and technical means, communication systems, optical sights for guns, different training equipment, sources of independent electricity provision, air-bombs, automatic troops’ management systems and sub-systems, and all-terrain vehicle.
All the abovementioned samples are used in the Armed Forces. Some armament and military equipment samples have been exhibited in foreign exhibitions. Some systems and complexes lay bases for creating cooperation ties with foreign countries and for enforcing the military-technical cooperation.
Also purposeful work is being done to adopt modern technological directions, especially in the spheres of armament and service, repairment and modernization of multi-nature military samples.
Today all the ARM AF armaments and military equipment are repaired in the factories of the defence-industrial complex. Parallel, necessary parts are produced, and present means - modernized.
For comparatively low prices the old-generation armament and military equipment becomes relevant to today’s demands.
Due to the complex modernization of radio, radio-technical, radio-location, and artillery firing management, not only has their lifetime been prolonged and reliability been restored, but also, due to the modern engineering-technical and technological solutions the technical capabilities were improved, the energy consuming was lowered, etc.
The exchange of petrol engines with diesel ones will significantly affect the economic indices of the use of some means of transportation, and will allow their technical resources to be almost fully restored.
Some kinds of military equipment were replenished with new armament systems, which ensure their easy mobility and protection, and add capabilities for getting the enemy.
Our goal is to spend the majority of the financial means given for the ARM AF military-technical saturation inside the Republic, do relevant investments for providing relevant samples of armaments, military equipment and military-technical means, accept realistic plans for armament development and ensure their unfailing operation.
