Abstract

This article shows that, among other republics of the USSR, Soviet Armenia also received its share of the “war reparations” imposed on Germany following the Second World War and the Great Patriotic War. High-tech machines and other modern equipment of German factories and enterprises, which arrived from Germany to the republic in the summer of 1946 as “German trophies”, not only replenished and re-equipped many industrial enterprises of the republic, but also new industrial facilities were created on their basis in Yerevan and other cities of the republic. All this largely caused the accelerated development of the industry of Soviet Armenia in the post–war years, increased the level of involvement of the republic in the rapidly developing Soviet military-industrial complex.
