Russian defense sector

"The defense sector will become more competitive by 2020,” Rogozin announced on Thursday. “It will unite about 40 large research and production companies capable of development, asset management and active positioning [of Russian defense products] on Russian and international markets." The statement by Rogozin was on the topic of uniting many of Russia's defense corporations to co-develop more powerful weaponry for Russia and it's allies' use. Russia's military and defense sectors surpass the civilian sector in economic growth by 1.3%. Another statement by Rogozin was that they would not be light on people found guilty of corruption in the defense sector and would be heavily punished as Russia suffers from mass amounts of corruption as it is a not entirely stable country.
