If I export diamond rings and sell two rings for a million dollars each in one year, then comparing that to someone selling cheap rings for $150 each who sells ten thousand a year... am I really the bigger exporter of rings, or am I just making the most money?

I have seen dollar value comparisons but when the US oversells stuff to Arab countries who are actually buying protection then the numbers will always be wrong.

Was thinking something similar when I posted as I wondered what the total units delivered comparison would actually be?

Assistant to the President of Russia Vladimir Kozhin on the MTC of Russia

The Vesti 24 TV channel posted a very interesting interview with Russian Presidential Aide Vladimir Kozhin on the MTC of Russia. A number of his theses are of unconditional interest.

So, it is reported that the cost of deliveries in 2017 was 15 billion $, the cost of signed contracts was 16 billion $, the portfolio of orders reached 45 billion $. But it seems that the most interesting is relateds to the geography and structure of deliveries:
50% of the portfolio of orders falls on the region of the Middle East and North Africa, followed by China and India.
Over 50% - aircraft, 20% - ground forces, 10% - air defense and navy.



The main sensation: India in 2017 is on the fifth (!) Position on the volume of Russian arms exports.

And one more important point. The PRC now accounts for 6.5 billion $ of Russia's contractual obligations out of a total of 45 billion (14.44%). These are supplies of S-400 missiles, Su-35 fighters, Be-200 and Be-103 aircraft, Mi-171, Ka-32A11BC and Ansat helicopters, aircraft engines and R&D.

According to the Stockholm Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), in 2013-2017, the US share in the world arms export market was 34%, Russia - 22%. The top three buyers of American weapons are Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Australia. Russian - India, China and Vietnam.
According to SIPRI estimates, India, for example, in 2013-2017, bought 62% of weapons from Russia, and 15% - from the United States. For Egypt, these figures were 21% and 26% respectively. For Iraq, 22% and 56%. For Pakistan, 12% and 5.7%. For Bangladesh - 16% and 4.9%. For Kuwait, 3.3% and 88%. For Afghanistan, 27% and 59%. As noted in SIPRI's latest annual report on the relevant topic, "arms sales are often used by the US as a foreign policy tool to create new strategic partnerships." As an example, analysts point to an increase in sales of US arms by 557% between 2008-2012 and 2013-2017 "as part of the US efforts to compensate for China's growing influence in Asia and Oceania."

If you sell expensive diamond rings and make $25,000 profit on each one but you only sell three a year... which is the bigger ring seller?

US !! They invade you, destroy you, build cheap factories and underpay your people and let them build those rings for 1 dollar each and oblige you to buy them back for 50 000 dollars each.

Russian defense companies in Defense News rating

The American edition of Defense News published a regular rating of the 100 largest military-industrial companies in the world (Top 100) for 2019, based on revenues from sales of military products by global manufacturers in 2018. Only two Russian companies were included in the fresh rating - Concern EKR Almaz-Antey JSC, which moved from eighth to 15th place, and Tactical Missile Armament Corporation, which is located in 25th place. The same rating for 2018 was also attended by United Aircraft Building Corporation PJSC (14th place), Russian Helicopters JSC (36th), NPK Uralvagonzavod JSC (46th) and Concern Radio Electronic Technologies "(48th).



The top four rankings were American companies Lockheed Martin (defense production $ 50.536 billion), Boeing (3.4050 million dollars), Northrop Grumman ($ 25.3 billion) and Raytheon ($ 25163 million). For the first time, the Chinese state-owned aircraft manufacturing corporation AVIC (Aviation Industry Corporation of China) entered the list and immediately ranked fifth with a total of $ 24.902 million defense sales. Two more Chinese state-owned companies - China North Industries Group Corporation Limited (8th ) and China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (10th place).

It was the appearance of Chinese giant state-owned military-industrial companies, which immediately occupied high positions, for the first time in this rating, and partly caused the downward movement and dropout from the "first hundred" and some Russian defense-industrial companies. Nevertheless, the absence of a number of large Russian corporations (such as UAC) looks strange.

In 2019, the Ukrainian Ukroboronprom group of companies also completely dropped out of the rating, in 2018, it took 72nd place with sales of $ 873.45 million.
