Based on field surveys, the units developed project scales, equipment procurement plans, and cooperation mechanisms. Successful implementation is expected to improve independent research, design, and production of new technology equipment; facilitate technology transfer; and create breakthroughs in technology localization and production of needed items, supporting scientific research and training.
Concluding the event, Gen. Vinh requested both units to thoroughly study feedback, review and refine project dossiers, and ensure alignment with strategic objectives. Each project must select modern, practical, synchronized equipment, compatible with existing systems, and easily upgraded, focusing on foundational, forward-looking, strategic technologies that address emerging requirements in socio-economic development, national defense, and security.
