According to him, at the moment, the main developer of combat equipment - the Central research Institute of precision engineering (TSNIITOCHMASH, part of rostec) has not received a technical task for the development of the "Centurion", but the company is already working on some elements that are part of the subsystems of the new combat equipment.
Earlier, Rostec announced plans for the Central research Institute of precision engineering (TSNIITOCHMASH) to open development work on the creation of third-generation combined-arms equipment in 2020. The set that will replace the "warrior" will be called "Centurion".
