"News unpleasant": Russia has increased production of missiles by 40% - expert (video)

The Ministry of Defense reported about the possibility of the Russian Federation to produce about 65 missiles per month. Shell technology is primitive-in the X-101 missiles found electronics of the 70s, which was made in Minsk, said Defense Express expert Ivan Kirichevsky. The Russians increased capacity for missiles in the first half of 2023. Ivan Kirichevsky, an expert of Defense Express, said this in the Channel 24 Comment on May 22.

The General Directorate of Intelligence (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has recently reported Russia's possibility to produce approximately 65 missiles of various types per month. The production capabilities of the enemy have narrowed the western sanctions significantly, but they cannot close the Russian MIC, said the observer. "This is unpleasant news. At the peak of air attacks in December 2022, the Russians could produce 40 missiles a month.

It turns out that they increased power by 40%," Kirichevsky said. Russian missiles are provided with primitive technologies, but they can still fly and harm, he added. "In May 2022, GUR reported on the check of the first samples of whipped missiles X-101. They found an electronics of the 1970s, made in Minsk. There stood the Belarus electronics of 50 years ago, and the missiles flew to the purposes," Kirichevsky said.

The event, according to the expert, willingly provides Ukraine with air defense systems because the production of winged missiles in Russia has failed to fail economic restrictions. "The Russian peak falls at the end or beginning of the calendar year. They imitate the Soviet patterns - everyone beats the kayaks, and then they urgently execute the plan," - summed up Kirichevsky.
