Russia Increased Cruise Missile Production Despite Sanctions: UK Intel
15:00 16.09.2023 (Updated: 16:55 16.09.2023) Since the beginning of the special military operation in Ukraine, Russia's economy has been facing an increasing number of unilateral sanctions, particularly targeting the military-industrial sector. Against this backdrop, Russian President Vladimir Putin has pushed for a boost in domestic production of advanced weaponry.
Russia is likely to be able to produce a "significant stockpile" of air-launched cruise missiles (ALCMs) despite
Western sanctions, according to the latest UK Defence Intelligence update.
According to undisclosed sources cited by Western media, Russia has successfully surpassed the imposed sanctions and export controls imposed by the West. This achievement has enabled Russia to produce a higher volume of cruise missiles than it did before the initiation of Moscow's
special military operation.
According to the sources, Russia "has more Kh-55 ALCMs in stock now than they did in the beginning" of the special operation.
The developments follow President Vladimir Putin's emphasis on the need to boost production of advanced weapons in Russia, such as the
upgraded T-90 'Proryv' (Breakthrough) main battle tank,
the Lancet kamikaze drone, and the Ka-52 and Mi-28 att
"We need to boost the production of the newest weapons in terms of percentage," Putin said during a meeting with Sergey Chemezov, head of the Russian state corporation Rostec, which aims to promote the development, production and export of high-tech industrial and military products.
Rostec, a prominent Russian company, has been singled out as a target of the sectoral sanctions imposed by the
US and its allies in response to the Russian special operation.
The Russian economy is being specifically targeted through sectoral sanctions, which aim at key sectors such as finance, energy, mining, metallurgy, and the military-industrial sector.
President Putin has repeatedly emphasized that the primary objective of these restrictive measures is to undermine the Russian
economy. He firmly believes that the West has yet to acknowledge the undeniable reality that Russia will successfully overcome these sanctions.
