MOSCOW, April 03. /ITAR-TASS/. Financing of the state programme for the development of Russia’s ship-building sector in 2013-2020 might be cut by 40%, Russian Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Alexei Rakhmanov said on Thursday at a Russian State Duma [lower parliament house] session dedicated to prospects for the development of the ship-building sector.

According to official information about the programme posted on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, budget spending on the development of civil marine facilities and the ship-building industry till the year of 2030 was fixed at about 338 billion roubles [$9.6 billion].

“We have a state programme on the development of the ship-building industry,” Rakhmanov said. “Regrettably, this programme is being rather seriously adjusted. We hope we will be able to find mutually acceptable solutions with our colleagues at the Finance Ministry, but, judging from the programme we submitted last year, the shrinkage is up to 40%.”


He noted that Russia’s ship-building sector has been underfinanced in the past 20 years. In his words, “feverish mobilization” of resources started each time when deadlines for the launching of civilian vessels or warships were postponed.

“But we always find a way to solve these problems,” he said. “So, I must say that with a great degree of certainty the state defence order till 2020 will be fulfilled in the full and in due time.”


Speaking about long-term planning, Rakhmanov noted that “efficient dialogue has so far been established only with the Navy.” “There were hearings on the defence ship-building programme till the year 2050, and approaches to long-term planning will make it possible to arrange the industrial, science-an-technology activities and organize design bureaus,” he added.

Russia now produces these engines (VK-2500) at Klimov factory in St. Petersburg , so Motor Sich will do everything to prevent politics or they are out of work , and we are talking about 22,000 jobs directly tied on MS and many more indirectly in high-tech sector.

IMO its the dumbest decision fo thsi decade to underfund the most problematic military sector of russia. The lack of a navy has been severly limiting russian geopolitical influence(with a large navy to intimidate them  just think if the US would've done all these imperialist overseas actions of russian clients like serbia and iraq). IMO they should've put those budget cuts on the army  since a very large but poorly deployable land force has lost wars time and time again(germany was a victim of this TWICE). In today's case all land threats against russia can be completely countered by missiles witha only a nominal army necessary but for protecting overseas allies and military bases a large navy is a must. Getting around 10 extra destroyers and cruisers would be much more useful in todays international arena than a few hundred extra pieces of tracked metal. Thats why there the current russian military planners need to get their heads out of their asses of the 1940s "we have a million-man army so that means we can do anything" thinking and actually do something sensible ofr today's heavily navy-amphibious-centric geopolitics.
