Kalashyan: Good evening. Naryshkin: We will talk today about the prospects for the development of public-private partnership in the military-industrial complex.

Kurannoy: Yes, and as I understand it, it is precisely the Project Technica Corporation that is one of the brightest examples of such cooperation, such a partnership between the state and the private company. To begin with, is the company really private?

Kalashyan: The company is really private. Yes, thanks for such an introduction. Yes, I think that there are examples more vivid in our military-industrial complex. But thanks. KURENEN: Well, we haven’t met really yet, because .. Naryshkin: Well, maybe you are also bright, how do we know? KURENEN: Well, from what I saw to the air, I looked, got acquainted with information .. Naryshkin: I have a chin, I looked in front of the broadcast ..

smoked: now we will talk about this in detail. In what areas do you cooperate with the state? Is this the Ministry of Defense, the military-industrial complex, the military-industrial commission? With whom? Kalashyan: Well, we work, which means with all the power structures. Our customers: the Ministry of Defense, first of all, the Ministry of the Interior, Internal Troops, the Ministry of Emergencies.

Well, in fact, here are our main customers. Kurennoy: Is this under the state defense order cooperation? Or how? Kalashyan: Yes, as part of the state defense order. We are developers and suppliers of special military equipment for these power structures. Naryshkin: Well, so, tell me now what you are doing? We know Sasha, and the listeners. Kalashyan: The specialization in this area is as follows.

We release, we formulate this for ourselves. We release everything that allows and provides, which means that the work of military personnel in the field. These are technical support tools. Well, in the commoneria this is called "flyer". For the repair and maintenance of military equipment in the field. Naryshkin: Are these cars? Kalashyan: Cars, yes. All this is mobile, all this, so to speak, is moving.

The tool for the rear support, that is, is what allows military personnel in the field. These are, therefore, complexes associated with living, with cooking, with other amenities that are needed in the field and medical support. Field medical institutions of different levels. From, so to speak, the battalion to the district. Naryshkin: And let's explain to the size of the size.

Here, what you produce, you yourself call a module. What size is it? Where can this be put, take away? How much is the mobile thing? Kalashyan: Well, that means that in order to make it clear, and somehow visualize this business, now, imagine Lego. We have a module with a basic element of this Lego. This is essentially a container or a van, which is transported by any type of transport: road, rail, sea and air.

This is his versatility. This means that on the basis of these modules, one or another means of providing different levels are assembled respectively. For example, it can be a single car for maintenance, well, say, for maintenance, say, cars in the field. It can be a whole repair complex. In the same way, it can be, so to speak, one machine for the provision of medical services in the front edge.

This can be a whole complex, up to a high -level hospital, which can provide reception and treatment with the most difficult surgical surgery in the field. Naryshkin: But we will collect the field hospital from several of these? Kalashyan: Yes. And depending on the task that the customer sets us, we are collecting this or that configuration of a particular sample that the customer requires from these basic modules.

In fact, we do not supply products as such, we supply solutions for our customer. This is our specifics. Kurannoy: When did you create your modules with these and completely ready -made camp for deployment in the field, how did you study army needs? Because, well, now there is also a set in the troops. These are tents, field kitchens and so on. You went to the place, for exercises, let's say?

How did you study it all and who did you consult with? With the Ministry of Defense, maybe with someone to create what will really be in demand. Kalashyan: The question is actually quite well described in the relationship of the customer and developer and supplier. This is very, by the way, an important point, which often, so to speak, is a stumbling block in the market.

So, there is a certain specificity. The military has clearly described rules, they are regulated by the relevant GOST, which is called.So is the "creation and development of a model of weapons of military equipment." And this GOST applies to all types of equipment and weapons that are purchased or delivered in the interests of the Ministry of Defense. It doesn’t matter if this is a field kitchen or some complex missile system, all rules are one for any type of equipment.

And here the procedure is described as follows. Military scientific institutions of the Ministry of Defense form a technical task for a particular sample. In accordance with this technical task, the developer develops one or another sample. Then, complex state tests of this sample are held at the training grounds of the Ministry of Defense for compliance with the specified requirements.

After that, it means that a decision is made on the possibility of supplying this model of the armed forces. Here is such a procedure. Naryshkin: Here, you said, we talked partly about who in the state is the consumer of your products. Now, if we are talking about the Ministry of Defense now. What modules of our military departments are most interested in?

Do they buy the whole spectrum, including the kitchen? Kalashyan: Well, the main customer and, so to speak, for us the guide is primarily the Ministry of Defense. And all the examples that in our brochures that we have now mentioned are made in the interests of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. Well, at the same time, it means that other power structures, so to speak, also knowing.

Well, since everything that has been done for the Ministry of Defense, it is like a priori is suitable for other security forces. And for export supplies. Naryshkin: How much did you put your own in our army? If this is not some secret? I think this is not a mystery, because, well, this cannot be called some kind of weapons. Kalashyan: No, this is not a secret. We produce per year near modules that are formed in complexes of different levels.

Naryshkin: Is it only for the Ministry of Defense or?
