His manager, Alexander Rubin, presented a preliminary analysis on his Telegram channel. “This is evidenced by the marking of parts and fragments, the identification of components and structural elements, and the characteristics of the respective type of weapon,” he said.
In general, Russian rockets have parts that can be used in several types of products at the same time, others are parts only for specific samples. In this case, we see elements that are specific to the 3M22 ‘Zircon’ missile. Parts and debris of jet engine and steering mechanisms have specific meanings the Ukrainian official explained.
In the meantime, Ukraine is moving forward in 2024 in the production of thousands of long-range drones, which will be able to carry out strikes deep inside Russian territory. Already, drones manufactured by 10 companies can reach Moscow and St. Petersburg, the Minister of Digital Transition of Ukraine emphasized.
