Rogozin: Russia is nine times behind the US in the space sector

    By labor productivity




    A lot of noise today made Dmitry Rogozin's statement about Russia's lagging behind the US in the space sector.

    “Today we are nine times behind the Americans in the space industry. All our ambitious projects suggest that we should increase productivity by 1.5 times. Well, to increase in one and a half times, but still they do not catch up ever, "- commented Deputy Prime Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation on the board.

    Rogozin called on officials to fight red tape and increase labor productivity, otherwise Russia “will look at NASA and Ilona Mask in the same way.”

    The news about Russia's catastrophic lagging behind the United States in the space sector and that Russia “will never catch up with them ever” was sold online.

    A few hours later, Dmitry Rogozin was forced to clarify on Twitter. He stressed that he was referring specifically to labor productivity, and not Russia’s lag in principle.


    Dmitry Rogozin also added that in the field of rocket and space engine-building Russia is much more competitive in terms of quality and price than the United States.

    However, this does not make the situation much happier, because the alignment of forces in the space sphere is quite understandable today. Although two years ago, Dmitry Rogozin thought that it would be difficult for the Americans, on the contrary:
