This is a comment from Ukraine War thread which was a reply to my comment. I'm responding just to the part that is relevant to this thread as the statement cited below is a good opportunity to expand on what the State Armaments Programs 2011-2020 and 2018-2027 covered.
Below are dates and numbers as listed on wikipedia, referring to the procurement covering the period from 2011 to 2017 which is when SAP 2011-2020 was in effect, before revision in 2018.
Navy
x - laid down or reactivated, still under construction
x - laid down or reactivated, in service or sea trials
o - commissioned after being laid down or launched in 2011-2017
Air and air defense forces
Russian intervention in Syria began on 30/9/2015 i.e. it could only affect the last two years which demonstrates that the procurement decisions on PGMs were determined by availability of capable platforms which were only introduced as part of SAP 2011-2020. Before Russian Air Force simply didn't have the planes that could use modern PGMs effectively or at all.
As for the Ground Forces, this branch was least in need of technical modernisation and its primary challenge was generating sufficient number of high-readiness units and shifting personnel structure toward a mixed contract/conscript model. In that effort which is largely an administrative reorganisation within the branch the Ground Forces failed due to institutional inertia and corruption. That failure can be in turn contrasted with the transformation of the VDV which was largely successful and greatly improved the quality of the formation despite similar lack of technical modernisation e.g. vehicles.
The revision of SAP after 5 years is a standard procedure written into law and is expected whenever the circumstances call for it. SAP wasn't changed to reflect a different attitude of the planners but to provide a legal framework for decisions aready made in response to dynamically changing conditions.
The rest of the cited comment is not worth my time in either thread so I'll end here.
It is well known in Russian analysis circles that Russian Ground Forces got a massive shafting in the SAP 2020 program, an issue that was rectified only in SAP 2027. SAP 2020 injected a lot of cash into Naval and Aerospace forces, and the MIC failed to deliver in those areas. By contrast, the Ground Forces got a lot less inventory in the same time period, the major bottleneck was not in munitions production as far as I could tell. No, in fact Russian MOD was skittish about ordering PGMs and next-gen platforms until the Russian intervention in Syria, at which point PGM orders consistently trended upwards.
