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, in post 2010-2022, was replaced by Colonel-General Mikhail Mizintsev, the previous head of the MoD's National Defence Management Center.[6]
