Russia producing 500 Shaheds and more than 100 cruise missiles per month - Forbes

In a month, the aggressor country russia produces from 42 to 56 ballistic and 90-115 long-range cruise missiles, as well as more than 500 Shahed-136 drones.

Forbes reported this with reference to its own intelligence sources.

According to the publication, the pace of weapons production in russia allows them to be used for strikes on the territory of Ukraine, in particular on the energy infrastructure.

"Russia produces from 42 to 56 ballistic and 90-115 long-range cruise missiles that can be used for strikes deep into Ukrainian territory, in particular energy infrastructure. The rate of production of Shahed-136 drones is more than 500 units," the report says.

That is why the stocks of weapons for daily shelling of the territory of Ukraine are not exhausted, the publication explains.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in June, russia began to massively buy old machine tools and other high-precision equipment in China, as it cannot buy them directly from Western manufacturers due to sanctions.

Numerous sanctions do not prevent the russian federation from importing several thousand components for its combat aircraft.

Recall that in March, the American edition of The Wall Street Journal reported that russia doubled the import of substances for the production of explosives despite numerous restrictions.
