Rostec to Start Developing 3 Generation Combat Gear in 2020 June 26, 2019 Press Release JSC Tsniitochmash (Part of Rostec) Plans
Rostec to start developing 3rd generation combat gear in 2020 June 26, 2019 Press release JSC TsNIITochMash (part of Rostec) plans to start R&D work of new third generation combat gear for the military in 2020. This new equipment, replacing the Ratnik combat gear, will be called Sotnik. The new gear will include anti-mine boots, an anti-thermal suit hiding the soldier from infrared sensors and anti-radar camouflage suit. Other plans include introducing a tactical system using micro UAVs, where the camera stream from the UAV will be projected to the helmet’s visor or separate goggles. The electric goggles can also be used to display tactical orders, maps of the area, etc. “According to our plans, the third generation gear Sotnik will replace Ratnik already in 2025. This will be fundamentally new kind of equipment integrating the best high-tech designs of Russian enterprises, including those of Rostec. Thanks to the use of innovative materials and combining the functions of individual elements, the weight of the set will be reduced by 20%, amounting to about 20 kilograms”, said Rostec CEO Sergey Chemezov. Sotnik will use a “chameleon” material that can be controlled with voltage — a joint design by TsNIITochMash and the Roselectronics holding company. This electrochromic material can change its color depending on the masked surface and its environment. A helmet with this kind of unique coating was demonstrated for the first time at the ARMY-2018 forum. Rostec has been supplying the Russian army with a 2nd generation Ratnik combat gear since 2014. This gear consists of five integrated systems: life-support, control and communications, combat, protection and energy supply. -

Section 231 of CAATSA requires the U.S. President to impose potential sanctions against individuals or entities that knowingly engage in “significant transactions” with persons that are a part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors. An overview of CAATSA is provided in our Client Update of July 28, 2017. The new guidance is accompanied by a list of entities considered to be operating in Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors.

Section 231 of CAATSA authorizes sanctions for conduct engaged on or after August 2, 2017, with any sanctions imposed becoming effective on or after January 29, 2018. The State Department also has stated that it intends, when possible, to “work with” persons contemplating transactions with the listed persons to help avoid sanctionable transactions. DEFENSE AND INTELLIGENCE SECTORS Over thirty entities, listed in the appendix to this update, are identified in the guidance as persons that are part of, or operating for or on behalf of, Russia’s defense or intelligence sectors.

Forskningsinstituten sysslar i huvudsak med att utveckla forskningsidéer för militär tillämpning. Konstruktionsbyråerna utvecklar och testar prototyper. Vetenskapliga produktionsassociationer kombinerar FoU- verksamhet med egen tillverkningskapacitet. Sammantaget består försvars- industrins FoU-komponent av nästan 600 organisationer. Av dessa är cirka 300 forskningsinstitut, knappt 130 konstruktionsbyråer och ungefär 170 vetenskapliga produktionsassociationer. Geografiskt är FoU-organisationerna koncentrerade till större städer. I och omkring Moskva finns nästan hälften av alla FoU-institut, medan St. Petersburg har en femtedel av instituten. Den militära FoU-strukturen kan indelas i sju huvud- sakliga branscher: flyg, rymdteknologi, skeppsbyggnad, konventionella vapen, radioelektronik och kommunikationssystem, ammunition och speciella kemikalier samt kärnteknik.
