[edit] What does this mean?

It is important to note that the Antonov company has no industrial possibilities for full-circle construction of some of the models it designed. This is a result of Soviet industrial strategy, which tried to split military production chains between different regions of the USSR. It minimized potential war risks, and prevented Soviet republics from developing self-sufficient economies. This is why Antonov airplanes were often constructed by aerospace companies in Kharkiv (Ukraine), Novosibirsk (Russia), and Tashkent (Uzbekistan).. I have no idea what full-circle construction means. If anyone does could they alter that section please to make the meaning clearer? - Adrian Pingstone 16:15, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
