Во-вторых, современные вызовы и угрозы диверсифицированы и подвержены непредсказуемым изменениям. За- дача обеспечить мир и безопасность остается прежней, меняются условия и влекут за собой трансфор- мацию самой структуры оборонно-промышленного комплекса, включая в него новые сегменты и даже отрасли. Когда руководство страны ставит задачу диверсификации ОПК, в качестве основного аргумента звучит экономическая целесообразность. Интенсивное перевооружение армии, которое обеспечивало предприятия гособоронзаказом на протяжении последних лет, завершено, то есть интенсивный режим переходит в нормальный и количество заказов уменьшается. Однако не только снижение объемов гос- оборонзаказа должно быть стимулом для осваивания новых сегментов рынка. Технологии и оборудо- вание, которые используются в новейших формированиях вооруженных сил, например, в войсках ин- формационных операций, в коммерческом секторе востребованы не менее, если не более.
