Ukrainian intel publishes data on over 50 Russian electronics firms

Ukraine's Defense Intelligence has revealed data on 54 Russian firms linked to KRET, an electronics holding within Russia's state corporation Rostec, according to the War&Sanctions portal, updated on September 15. The military intelligence unit, HUR, highlights that these companies primarily produce electronic warfare systems, "friend-or-foe" identification systems, and avionics for Russian military aircraft, encompassing fighter jets and helicopters.

The list extends to electric motors, drone navigation and control systems, anti-drone systems, and remote platforms for machine gun operation. HUR notes that KRET also contributes to the manufacture of Russian ballistic missiles.

Among the 54 enterprises identified, 19 are not subject to sanctions by any state in the sanctions coalition. HUR previously reported that Russia had encountered difficulties in obtaining Chinese-made jet engines for drones due to Ukraine's partners' actions. In recent weeks, Russia has increasingly relied on jet-powered drones and missile-like unmanned systems, notably the Geran-4 and the affordable Banderol improvised missile, as its primary airstrike tools against Ukraine.
