Russia proposes tax credits for private drone defense funding

Bottom line

Russian RSPP head proposes investment tax credits for private firms to fund air defense systems, citing drone threats to industrial infrastructure.

Why it matters

Indicates significant economic pressure on Russian industry from drone strikes and potential shifts in how counter-drone capabilities are funded and deployed in the private sector.

RSPP head Shokhin proposes investment tax credits for private firms to fund air defense systems protecting industrial infrastructure, citing Putin’s August decree on critical infrastructure protection. This is contrasted with the Finance Ministry’s stance on self-funding. The proposal highlights the economic burden of drone attacks on Russian industry and the state’s attempt to incentivize private sector counter-drone investment.
