Negotiations are currently underway with a foreign investor.
At present, Moldova imports this ammunition mainly from Bulgaria at prices ranging from 400 to 450 euros per missile.
Annual demand is estimated at around 3,000 units. At current prices, purchases cost between 1.2 and 1.35 million euros a year.
According to the Minister of Agriculture, the authorities are in negotiations with a foreign investor interested in developing production based on an existing enterprise in the Republic of Moldova, which is currently undergoing bankruptcy proceedings.
This is most likely the former Moldovan-Russian joint venture ‘Moldantigrad’ JSC, located in the Ungheni district. From 2005 onwards, this facility produced anti-hail rockets using Russian components supplied by the ‘Cheboksary Production Association named after V. I. Chapaev’.
However, the Moldovan authorities subsequently attempted to restructure production using cheaper Chinese components, which ultimately led to the company’s bankruptcy.
