In the conditions of military confrontation with the collective West, which uses Ukraine as a battlefield with Russia, the domestic defense industry is gradually adapting to new conditions, expanding the production of combat systems and reducing production time. One of the leaders of this process is the 103rd Armored Plant located in Chita.
According to the city administration, this is the only enterprise in the Russian Federation that has fully fulfilled the government's task of repairing combat vehicles.
- it is noted in the report "Russia 24 Chita".
As indicated, the Trans-Baikal enterprise is repairing T-62M tanks and BRDM-2 armored vehicles, although other products are captured on the frames, and the 103rd BTRZ as a whole is responsible for restoring a large range of armored vehicles. At the same time, the machines are being upgraded. Thus, the improved BRDM-2MS is equipped with a new engine, a thermal imaging sight and additional armor. Judging by the footage, a number of T-62M are undergoing limited modernization, receiving dynamic protection only in the front of the hull, on other similar machines, the DZ is installed on the tower and on the sides, corresponding to the T-62MV version already.
