"Naval equipment export has averaged 12 percent of the company’s portfolio over the past several years. This, by the way, is on par with the share of our competitors in the leading states exporting military equipment. Since 2000, we have sold 50-plus naval ships, a third of which are submarines. The naval equipment exported over the period is worth a total of $24 bln," Mikheev was quoted as saying by the company's press service.
The statement is dedicated to Rosoboronexport's participation in the International Maritime Defense Show IMDS-2017. At the event, the company will display the wide range of exported naval equipment including the newly elaborated items as well as the well-known equipment refurbished with better characteristics.

Also, present at the event will be companies from Belgium, Germany, India, Italy, the Netherlands, Turkey," the press service noted.
