Russia speeds up drone and missile production

Reports have shown that Russia is moving towards producing advanced versions of the "Giran" drones and "Panderol" missiles, utilizing components manufactured in China. This indicates their ability to accurately reach targets and evade interception. These Russian weapons have evolved over two years through modifications of earlier models and combat testing. Each unit costs around $100,000, compared to over two million dollars for American Tomahawk missiles. These weapons are heavily used in the war in Ukraine, where Russian drone attacks have increased from 350 to 2,800 within three months, with speeds reaching up to 500 kilometers per hour, making them difficult to intercept. The rising use of these weapons has led to a decrease in oil production in Russia and a rise in diesel and petrol prices, while Ukraine has fewer resources to boost its own production accordingly.
