It considers the likelihood that neither of these sectors will prove adequate to the military's needs in the near term, forcing Russia to turn to the West for military-technical assistance. By investigating trends in the Russian scientific community as a whole, including science funding, higher education, the brain drain, and the evolution of scientific organizations, it assesses long-term prospects for Russian military R&D.  aAlso available on the internet via WWW in PDF format. 0aDefense industrieszFormer Soviet republics. 0aDefense industrieszRussia (Federation) 0aFormer Soviet republicsxMilitary policy. 0aRussia (Federation)xMilitary policy.2 aArroyo Center.bStrategy and Doctrine Program.2 aRand Corporation.1 aUnited States.bArmy.41yOnline Accessuhttp://www.rand.org/pubs/monograph_reports/MR709/
