Russians can produce about a hundred missiles of various types in a month

According to the Ukrainian General Staff, the Russian military-industrial complex can produce approximately a hundred missiles of various types per month. Deputy Chief of the Main Operations Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Brigadier General Oleksiy Hromov, reported this.

"According to our estimates, the Russian military-industrial complex is capable of producing around 100 missiles per month," he said.

 

Hromov specified that this number includes over 10 units for the Iskander missile system, up to 30 units for the sea-launched Kalibr missiles, and up to 60 units of air-launched cruise missiles, including hypersonic aeroballistic Kinzhal missiles.

Hromov added that the aggressor country was able to maintain or even increase the pace of missile production after the invasion of Ukraine.

He also mentioned that Russians are utilizing a significant number of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of various types. According to his information, Russia received up to 1,800 Shaheed drones from Iran, of which around 1,600 have already been used.

"The remaining stock is over 200 units. The supplies of these UAVs are constantly replenished through deliveries from Iran. In addition, Russia has reached agreements with this country to build a Shaheed drone production plant in the territory of Tatarstan, located about 10 km from Kazan," he clarified.

Hromov also reported that the occupiers actively employ their own strike UAVs of the Lancet type, which are produced in series at the Izhevsk Mechanical Plant, part of the Kalashnikov concern.

According to him, a total of up to 900 units of these devices have been manufactured, of which 850 have been used in the combat zone. Thus, Russians have around 50 UAVs of this type remaining.

However, the general noted that due to Western sanctions and the lack of access to modern technologies, the enemy's technological capabilities in the production of advanced drones remain limited.
