Abstract
The article is devoted to the identification of the characteristics and priorities of innovation and technological development in the industrial regions of the Russian Federation in the context of the ongoing global crisis. The authors come from the hypothesis that, in these circumstances, the strategy of innovative development of industrial regions, in order to ensure their sustainability and the creation of conditions for further growth, should be an integral part of their industrial policies and focus primarily on the modernization and improvement of technical and technological level of basic units. On the basis of the analysis of statistical data about the status of the innovation capacity in the Russian Federation the authors identified root causes of the continuing backlog of advanced foreign countries by level of innovative development (installation on raw-material orientation of the Russian economy that enhances both the technological dependence of the developed countries; insufficient financial support for innovation activities by the State; the orientation of innovation in imitation and borrowing). There is founded the necessity to take into account in the formulation and implementation of the socioeconomic strategic regions of the Russian Federation and the close relationship between the industrial, technological and innovation component of social development. In order to improve the effectiveness of regional development policies classification of Russian regions to take account of their industrial and technological specialization and identifies required elements and characteristics of effective innovation systems for each type of region. In this article were determined proposals on measures of State support for innovation development of industrial regions, with the aim of improving their sustainability and competitiveness in the face of geopolitical and economic uncertainty.

Summary
Compilation based on [4, p. 444, 446, 448, 450, 455]. in Russia the proportion of organizations that are involved in innovative activity is barely above 10 %, whereas in the developed countries their number is approximately in 5–8 times higher. As a matter of fact today, in the same way as it used to be in the Soviet times the innovative activities that do not consist of imitation and borrowing ideas but involve the creation of new technologies and solutions are concentrated mainly in the military industry complex and are hardly noticeable in the civilian sector As for the latter, modernization of the production base and the range of products is mainly achieved not by development and implementation of own innovations but by purchasing foreign equipment and technologies or due to the establishment of assembly units of foreign companies in the region. Enhancement of the receptibility of production and socio-economic environment to innovation
