The Russian Academy of Rocket and Artillery Sciences (RARAN) is a non-profit scientific organization[1][2] of the Russian Federation. RARAN coordinates the activities of scientists who carry out complex research and development (R & D) on the creation, operation and use of modern weapons, military technology and special equipment. The Academy was established on April 5, 1994 by a decree of the RF President "in order to revive the traditions of Russian military science, and to develop scientific research in the country's defense complex".[3][4] RARAN is the only scientific and expert organization in the power structures that has state status. It unites leading scientists and specialists from organizations of the Russian Ministry of Defense, other federal executive authorities and the defense industry. This union enables the solutions of problematic issues such as the systemic development of weapons and special military technology (VVST).[5] According to its legal form, RARAN is a federal state budgetary institution. By the Decree of the RF Government on July 17, 1995 No. 715, RARAN was equated with branch academies. The principles of activity and its numbers were determined: 100 full members and 200 corresponding members.[6] In addition, the charter provides for the possibility of electing honorary and foreign members. Since 2016, according to the decision of the board of the RF Military-Industrial Commission, RARAN was designated the head scientific organization for the Council of Chief Designers of the weapons systems of the Army. The President of the Academy was also appointed the head of this council.
