As a result, from 2011 to 2016 (the forecast period), Russia is planning to invest heavily in research and development in order to both ensure the continued export growth of the country’s defense market and to offer updated equipment to its own armed forces.

This latter need was acutely illustrated by Russia’s 2008 conflict with Georgia, which exposed the inadequacy of much of Russia’s defense equipment. In order to rectify this, the country’s government has initiated a ten-year plan which aims to extensively modernize the Russian armed forces by 2021 and is expected to make the Russia the world’s third-largest defense spender by 2016.
