As of May 19, 2023, the production rate of X-101 missiles in Russia reaches 35 units per month, Kalibrov – 25 missiles. This, in particular, is reported by Ukrainian sources.
Moreover, according to the Ukrainians, the Russian military-industrial complex produces five Iskander-M missiles and two X-47 Kinzhal missiles every month.
The data given probably does not correspond to reality and is taken “from the ceiling”. However, even according to the information provided, the RF Armed Forces have Kalibr 400 X-101 and 300 missiles per year, although in reality these numbers are more impressive.
At the same time, Ukrainian data indicates an increase in the production of Russian missiles. So, at the end of January this year, the GUR of Ukraine indicated 53 missiles per month, but now this level has risen to 67, which corresponds to an increase of 20%.
Meanwhile, the Russian Federation continues to test the new Hermes missile system to destroy enemy drones, tanks and other military equipment. The range of “Hermes” is about 100 km. Defense Ministry sources report high accuracy in hitting targets with these missiles. The decision to send missile systems to the troops will be made based on the test results.
Earlier, Vladimir Putin spoke of Russia’s willingness to resume testing of weapons of mass destruction, which was viewed negatively by representatives of the G7 countries.
