Therefore creation of the joint enterprises with the western firms on cutting or re-equipment of combat material subject to reduction on the basis of mutually beneficial division of costs and profits could become a preferable variant of conversion in this concrete case. such joint ventures could be both in territory of the former USSR, and in the former allied East Europe countries which industry requires modernisation. The factor of territorial affinity of initial products and potential western consumers of scrap metal would play a positive role.

The Most preferable variant of conversion is nevertheless the reshaping of highly technological defensive manufactures on release of the export goods. Instead of forcing them to do home appliances unusual for them, the same production and frequently more quality it would be possible to buy in the West, and at the expense of the currency earned also on release of the unique civil technics.

Such variants have been offered, for example, by the Volgograd association ' Barricades ', making starting rocket installations. On their base some types of cars are developed for a national economy. Among them - svaebojnaja (which costs in the world market of an order of 800 thousand dollars), valochno-trelevochnaja the car (230 thousand dollars), a special equipment for extreme situations, fire installations, cars-safes. all this equipment is unique and has sale in the world market. On predesigns, on the earned currency it would be possible to buy not easier consumer goods, and the whole factories for its manufacture.
