The 🇷🇺 Krasny Oktyabr steel plant in Volgograd is on fire this morning.

The plant has orders from 2013 to produce pressure reactor containers for Russian submarines and from 2012 to produce 132 x T-14 Armata MBTs.

They have not completed either of these orders.

This fire will cause significant setbacks for producing Russian military equipment.
