MOSCOW, June 11. /TASS/. The new state arms program for 2027-2036 should encompass a full range of advanced weapons, leveraging the special military operation experience, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, opening a meeting on the program.
The event brought together First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov, Defense Minister Andrey Belousov, presidential aide Alexey Dyumin, Industry and Trade Minister Anton Alikhanov, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, Deputy Defense Minister Alexey Krivoruchko, Strategic Rocket Forces Commander Sergey Karakayev, Army Commander Andrey Mordvichev, Air Force Commander Viktor Afzalov, and Navy Commander Alexander Moiseyev.

The new state arms program should become the key tool to elevate Russian arms in the 21st century's fourth decade.
This April, the parties have already discussed how to increase the scope of deliveries and improve the efficiency of weapons and equipment to solve the special military operation tasks: "The proposals outlined then are being realized now. However, these measures are operational, and are carried out 'here and now,' based on the current needs."
