Izhmash public relations has already begun defending the bankrupt company. A photo essay at English Russia defends the company and portrays it as a thriving company and model employer.
Apparently the average monthly wage at Izhmash is $530 USD. Some specialists (which I suspect means management) at the company are getting bonuses equivalent to 50% of their salary.
