There is no money for the production of "Daggers" and "Vanguards"

The release of Russian hypersonic Dagger and Avant-garde missiles was hampered by a shortage of funds.

The Russian corporation Tactical Missile Weapons faced serious financial difficulties, against the background of which the development and production of new types of weapons, and this is more true of hypersonic missiles. Dagger (X-47М2), Avangard and Sarmat may be temporarily suspended, at least for the time of cost optimization.

“If you compare previous 19 trillion. rub. and 19 trillion rub. today, there is a big, if not huge, difference between them. The same inflation eats a decent part of the money. We are trying to optimize costs. But it is also very difficult: look at how much a conditional liter of gasoline cost last year and how much it costs today. Here is the answer to whether our costs are reduced or not. ”- said the head of the corporation "Tactical rocket armament."

However, the key problem is the unwillingness of the main customers to work with the provision of an advance, and therefore, related companies also do not want to fulfill orders without receiving finance.

“So you can optimize to zero, and nobody has canceled the growth of the cost price of components and materials”- stated Boris Obnosov.

According to analysts, the open statement of the head of the Tactical Missile Armaments Corporation suggests that serious problems have already begun, although only the first steps have been taken under the Russian hypersonic weapons program - only the Kinzhal aviation missile system is actually the composition of the carrier aircraft and the Kh-47M2 hypersonic missile.

It should be clarified that in the near future in the armament of Russia may appear complex "armor" armed hypersonic missilesthat allows you to accurately and quickly hit any air targets, including the interception of ballistic missiles.
