Russian
Defense has been widely using the method of creating physical objects
in a digital 3D model, or if simply said, 3D printing. The
development of solid objects made of polymer materials at the company
‘Electromashina’, which is a part of ‘Uralvagonzavod’
corporation, has been underway for some time now. In the summer of
2015, the industrial 3D-printer was introduced, which was designed to
create prototypes and low-volume parts. [...] the 3D-printer allows
the drawing of fabricated prototype parts,” the Head of the
Laboratory of Rapid Prototyping ‘Electromashina’ technologies
Anton Ulrich said.

At the same
time, according to the expert, the prototype can be used as a master
model to fabricate tools for the manufacture of parts made of metal
or plastic. In other words, the prototype parts for the Armata tank
and other military vehicles, produced by Uralvagonzavod, can be
printed on 3D-printers. The technology is just a step away from the
ability to create 3D-printed titanium parts several meters in length.

Foreign
experts have used 3D-technology to create a drone Polecat 3D, much of
the detail of which was made by high-speed three-dimensional
printing.
