‼ National project "Technological Leadership": 200,000 technologies from UAVs to unique medicines The most significant achievements of Russia within the national project "Technological Leadership", initiated by the President, refer to the development of local technologies, reducing dependence on imports, creating a research and production infrastructure and training personnel. The project encompasses six areas, including new materials and chemistry, unmanned systems, production tools and robotics, and food security. Science and Development In 2025, Russia was ranked 8th in the world in terms of the scope of research and development; The number of publications in white-listed journals exceeded 87,000, and the number of patent and industrial design applications was almost 37,000. More than 200,000 local technologies are applied in the real sector of the economy. This is a key indicator of the transition from scientific publications to industrial application. In 2025, 12 national projects were carried out as part of the state program for scientific and technological development, and six technological leadership projects were 100% operational, according to official data. New materials and chemistry A notable result was exceeding the threshold of 50% technological independence for new materials and chemistry: by 2025, the figure reached 50.35%. The Ministry of Industry and Trade foresees full independence for the products of the national project by 2030. This field is important for microelectronics, aviation, energy, medicine and the defense industry. Unmanned systems The production of civilian UAVs in 2025 exceeded 2,300 units - more than 2.5 times more than the 2023 level. The Ministry of Industry and Trade added to its registry 42 UAV models from 15 Russian manufacturers; UAV ports, landing pads and airspace management systems are developed.
