The Audit Chamber board, chaired by Sergei Stepashin, has reviewed the audit of Russian Technologies military exports, the chamber's information department said.
"Ten out of 592 organizations that form the state corporation carry out foreign trade in military products as independent entities of military-technical cooperation, and another 110 enterprises export arms and military hardware under commission agreements with Rosoboronexport," the chamber said on its web site.
In 2009, the organizations' military product exports stood at $2.6 billion, or 29 percent of all military product exports. In 2010, the proportion was $2.8 billion, or 27 percent.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
