It is subordinate to the Chief of Armament and Munition of the Russian Armed Forces, a vice-minister of defense.

    The organization dates back to 1862 when it was established under the name Главное артиллерийское управление (ГАУ – GAU). The "R" from "rockets" was added to the title in 1960.

    In particular, the GRAU is responsible for assigning GRAU indices to Russian army munitions and equipment.

    Arsenals of the GRAU, according to Kommersant-Vlast in 2005, include the 60th at Kaluga, the 55th at Rzhev, the 75th at Serpukhov south of Moscow, (all three in the Moscow Military District) and the 80th at Gagarskiy, the 116th at Krasno-Oktyabrskiy and the 5th, all in the Volga–Urals Military District.

    As of March 2014, the current Chief of the GRAU is Lieutenant General Nikolay Parshin.

    by: But Alive

    Sie sind sicher, daß ihr Gott der einzige ist,
    Und deshalb werden hier heilige Kriege geführt.
    Sie sind sicher, daß ihr System das beste ist,
    Und deshalb werden Menschen als Chaoten denunziert.
    Sie sind sicher, daß ihre Szene die coolste ist,
    Daß der Rest der Welt sowieso nichts taugt.
    Sie sind sicher, daß die Männer an allem schuld sind,
    Und deshalb werden so lächerliche Ghettos aufgebaut.
    "Sicher sein", das heißt Intoleranz,
    Das heißt "einfacher machen als es in Wirklichkeit ist".
    "Sicher sein", das heißt die Leere überwinden
    Und sehen, daß du nicht alleine bist.
    Zwei Seiten und nichts ist schwarz-weiß,
    Niemals werde ich so sicher sein, daß ich immer alles besser weiß.
    Und ihr, ihr wisst alles ganz genau, und ich scheiß' auf eure Dogmen,
    Denn für mich ist alles grau.
    Und die schlimmsten Verbrecher, die wir jemals sahen,
    Waren Menschen, die sich immer sicher waren.
    Hitler, Stalin, alle Päpste, wir warten auf die nächsten.
    Die Wahrheit in ihr Hirn gefressen,
    Nur ein Mensch zu sein total vergessen.
    Nie gezweifelt, immer im Recht.
    Oh, mir wird schlecht.
    Grau
    Grau
    Grau
    Grau
    Zwei Seiten und nichts ist schwarz-weiß,
    Niemals werde ich so sicher sein, daß ich immer alles besser weiß.
    Und ihr, ihr wisst alles ganz genau, und ich scheiß' auf eure Dogmen,
    Denn für mich ist alles grau.
    Ja, ich weiß, wir müssen Standpunkt beziehen,
    Wollen wir nicht der verkackten Realität hier entfliehen,
    Doch es gibt halt noch den allerhärtesten Weg,
    Den du immer nur voller Zweifel gehst.
