Russia is launching drones and some missiles that came off the assembly line in 2026 over Ukraine. This was stated by Advisor to the Minister of Defense Sergey (Flash) Beskrestnov . 

He noted that today (June 4, – ed.) a “Shahed” arrived in Kharkiv, manufactured just a few days ago, and the date of production can indirectly judge the enemy’s weapons stocks. 

“Shaheeds usually arrive with a release date of 5-15 days ago. That is, Russia is attacking us literally straight from the factory,” the specialist wrote in Telegram.

According to him, the Iskander 9M723 ballistic missiles that the enemy is launching at Ukraine are from 2025. As Beskrestnov explains, this means that Russia constantly has a stockpile of at least 180-250 Iskander missiles.

“This is bad,” the minister’s advisor emphasized.

At the same time, all the Zircon and S-400 (PM48U) missiles that the enemy is currently using to strike Ukraine are also dated 2026.

“The X101 missiles are most often dated several months before launch. The X-59s are dated the 3rd quarter of 2025. In general, we can say that the production of UAVs and missiles in the Russian Federation does not allow for the formation of large stocks and almost everything goes to the front,” Flesch stated.Advertising

Russian attacks on Ukraine

As UNIAN reported, Advisor to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Serhiy (Flash) Beskrestnov said that Ukrainian interceptor drones are currently shooting down about 50% of Russian strike drones. According to him, in the winter it was 10%, later – 20%, and now – about half, and this is a very good result.

According to the specialist, this figure will increase in the future. Flash also said that the Russians produce “Shaheeds” for about $ 70-80 million. Of this number, up to “20 units” are hit on the target – a hit costs $ 2-3 million, which is “absolute madness.”

  1. That Iskander factory is about 1,400km from Kharkiv, we ought to be able to destroy it. Of course, that won’t help with what is already made but its a problem.

  2. “In general, we can say that the production of UAVs and missiles in the Russian Federation does not allow for the formation of large stocks and almost everything goes to the front,”

    In general, we can also say that mafia land starting another war with someone else is totally out of the question.

  3. Lets invert that statement – instead of mafia land starting another war, someone else start it, Finland is close by, and that would put the nail in the coffin for that orcish shithole.
