The result was due to 100% fulfillment of all tasks on time, including the completion of scheduled shipments of the Oplot tanks to the Kingdom of Thailand in 2017.
"Under the contract with Thailand, Malyshev Plant has only a few combat vehicles that need to be sent to the customer. The company plans to complete the implementation of the contract in the first quarter of 2018," the report said.
In addition, the plant has already shipped the fifth batch of engines and components to Pakistan for Al-Khalid 1 tanks.
