"The munition has several principally new technical solutions. In several years it can become standard for munitions producers abroad," he said. Tecmash First Deputy Director General Vladimir Tikhonov said the portfolio of orders of the company has many assignments which are at a high stage of completion. "We hope in the coming two-three years to receive a principally new class of munitions, including artillery ones," he said.

By 2020 Tecmash has to comply with the requirement of the state armaments program to raise the share of modern armaments in the Russian army to 70 percent.
