MOSCOW, June 3. /TASS/. Russian weapons have always shown high efficiency and reliability, and they have successfully displayed that in real combat, Russia’s Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation said on Saturday, commenting on British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace’s remarks about the alleged malfunctioning of weapons from Russia.

"Russian weapons and military hardware have always showcased high efficiency and reliability and continue to successfully demonstrate these qualities in real combat. The proof of this is a considerable surge in interest in our weapons abroad, in particular in fighter jets, attack helicopters, armored vehicles, multiple launch rocket systems and others," the service said.

Earlier on Saturday, UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace claimed at the Shangri-La Dialogue security conference that the Russia-manufactured weapons do not meet quality requirements and advised the importing countries to give them back to the seller. Wallace failed to justify his allegations, but was confident that the weapons used by NATO are among the best in the world.
