“You and I were present at the test launch of a new modernized high-precision strike missile. Its testing will continue,” he said.

This model was developed for combat use in a special military operation zone and has significantly improved characteristics, in particular, an increased flight range and increased accuracy, Medvedev noted. Russia today, in his assessment, is gaining important experience by repulsing an enemy that NATO countries have “stuffed” with the latest types of weapons.

“The main thing we must achieve is resistance to air defense and electronic warfare systems that are in service with NATO and supplied to our enemy,” Medvedev said.

The Russian defense complex is actively modernizing equipment, trying to counter even the latest Western models with appropriate countermeasures, added the deputy chairman of the Security Council.

Earlier in September, Medvedev, on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin visited training ground for contract soldiers in the DPR, having become familiar with the progress of training and the conditions of service of contract soldiers.

On August 24, Medvedev said that Russia lives in the “everything for the front, everything for victory” regime. “Now the whole country, as has happened in our history, lives in the mode of “everything for the front, everything for victory.” These are not big words,” Medvedev said at a meeting with the leaders of United Russia’s regional lists.

The Russian side has repeatedly criticized the supply of Western weapons to Kyiv. In particular, in mid-August, Putin said that Western countries, by providing military support to Kyiv, were helping to fuel the conflict in Ukraine. September 25, State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin statedthat the “war of attrition” waged by Washington and Brussels against Moscow has led to a shortage of weapons in Western countries, economic problems, loss of public confidence, etc.
