27 American parts were found in the “Iskander-M”: the Russian Federation uses such missiles in Ukraine

They also found components from Switzerland.

The Russian “Iskander-M” missiles, which the occupiers use to attack peaceful Ukrainian cities, contain dozens of Western parts. The Russian Federation hit Poltava with a similar missile on September 3.

This is stated in a new infographic from the UA War Infographics project. It is noted that 27 parts of the Russian Iskander-M missile are American. Another 4 parts are of Swiss origin, two are of Taiwanese origin, and one is of Japanese origin.

“Whether there were American parts specifically in the missile that was fired at Poltava was not publicly reported. But this is a reason to think about how to strengthen the fight against the circumvention of sanctions. Western parts were found even in weapons produced in 2023,” – says messages

Western details in Russian weapons

A scandal erupted in Poland after Polish parts were found in Iranian Shahed-136 drones. In particular, the Russian Federation terrorizes Ukrainian cities almost every night with these drones.

The publication Le Monde reported that the Russian Federation continues to purchase components for tanks, drones and missiles from the West . Products from Europe enter Russia through the Turkish company Enütek Makina.

In addition, The Guardian wrote in 2023 that Russia uses the technologies of British companies in EW tools. Russian companies, which at that time were not subject to British sanctions, were engaged in the production of these means.
