It is believed that an army is combat-ready when it has about 70% of modern and promising models in its arsenal. What are modern and promising samples? Promising samples are better in their characteristics than their world counterparts, and the modern sample is the one that matches.
Our average army today, as a whole, has reached this figure, it already exceeds 70%, but for certain types and branches of the armed forces, strategic nuclear forces, this figure has long exceeded 70%, it is already approaching 90%. On average, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are equipped with modern and advanced weapons by 70%,” Borisov said.
