Logistical Support of the Russian Armed Forces (Russian: Материально-техническое обеспечение Вооружённых сил Российской Федерации, literally Materiel-Technical Support) or MTO are a unified system of command and control bodies, institutions and other military organizations that provide technical and logistical support for all branches of the Russian Armed Forces.[2] The MTO system of the Russian Armed Forces combines 2 previously independent types of comprehensive support: technical and logistical, both of which existed in the structure of the Rear of the Russian Armed Forces up until it was dissolved in 2010.[3] The management of Logistical Support is entrusted to the central bodies of military command, subordinate to the Deputy Minister of Defence.[4][5]
Deputy Defence Minister for logistics Army General Dmitry Bulgakov was replaced by Colonel-General Mikhail Mizintsev, the previous head of the MoD's National Defence Management Center.[6]
Mizintsev was then replaced during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He left the Armed Forces for the Wagner PMC. Colonel General Alexey Kuzmenkov was appointed deputy minister of defence for logistics, Western media sources reported on 30 April 2023.[7]
