Highlighting the ongoing efforts to supply the Armed Forces with the latest technical facilities, the Prime Minister emphasized that the process will be consistent and continuous.

“Manufactured in 2019,” he added. “This is one of our most important achievements this year. I can’t say anything about quantity; it is a military secret.”

  1. The acquisition of advanced weapons is always good news for Armenia and Artsakh, faced as they always are with the prospect of another genocide by Turkey and Azerbaijan.

    One hopes that Armenia’s indigenous defense industry is on top, and even ahead, of all of the recent technical advances.

    It is vital that Armenia train and retain scientists of all kinds. The Diaspora can help.
