OREANDA-NEWS Russia still continues to produce cruise missiles, despite anti-Russian sanctions. This is reported by The New York Times (NYT).
Sources of the publication claim that at least one of the X-101 missiles that hit critical infrastructure facilities in Ukraine was produced "no later than October 2022." At the same time, Moscow cannot receive semiconductors and other electronic components. The newspaper believes that Russia either established alternative supply channels for electronics, or it had significant reserves before the start of the special operation.
Pentagon officials say that since February, Russia has fired a lot of long-range shells and missiles, and it is unclear how many weapons are in the arsenals of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. At the same time, it is stipulated that the standard worldwide practice is to use primarily older ammunition stored in warehouses.
In October, the head of the British special service of electronic intelligence, the Government Communications Center (GCHQ), Jeremy Fleming, said that Russia has deep stocks of weapons. According to him, the strikes on infrastructure facilities in Ukraine showed that Moscow has a very combat-ready military machine.
