“Are you sure your not a CEO somewhere? That’s the easiest answer that couldn’t be more wrong so you must be the CFO.”

LOL, that’s my imitation, not as much of a CEO, but of some skinny government broad who works out, doesn’t want the distraction of a family, can’t find a decent guy, and makes procurement decisions that may well determine the future of the country. Also, could be a gay guy as well.

“How will the Russians build more of their weapons if they can’t smuggle in the US based chips their systems depend on?”

They’ll get around to building more weapons AFTER the war is over, and only if they need to.

NAFO and Western propaganda, nothing more, and purposely peddled by the likes of you, propaganda peddler.

We been listening and reading you moronic idiots posting article after article with Fr to the tune of about 31 plus variations since April of this year about how the Russians were out of missiles, drones, etc., AND YET, Russia steadily building those missiles, drones, etc. and USING THEM!

You all need to S T F U.

“The cemetery of missiles that fell onto 🇺🇦 Kharkiv. It’s only a small batch of the projectiles that Russia has fired on the 🇺🇦 territory. We need a comprehensive solution to close the sky.”

Our supply chain is shot. We may not have the workers anymore. They may be all retired now. We need Elon Musk at the job.

Doesn’t it seem a little odd, to publish this information? I mean, if true, this should be highly classified.

Massively agree to your solution to reduced stockpiles.

What this indicates to me, is that common sense stock pile quantities of these munitions were and are wildly off target and based on some sort of Pollyanna kumbya world view. Ditto the 155mm and other core munitions and their shooter mechanisms.

It’s hard to tell if someone on FR is being sarcastic or idiotic these days. My mistake.

Actually, Bob, Russia has been building weapons throughout the war.

https://t.me/i20028843

“Russia still continues to produce cruise missiles, despite anti-Russian sanctions, The New York Times newspaper writes.

According to her, some of the X-101 cruise missiles that were used to attack Ukraine’s critical infrastructure in November were produced no later than October 2022, despite Western sanctions, including against electronic components. As the publication suggests, this indicates that the Russian Federation has found channels to purchase semiconductors bypassing anti-Russian restrictions.”

Exact same tactic they are using to drain the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

You should try learning about how Russia imports US made integrated circuits and relies on them for its advanced weapons.

You may not be able to download this report from inside Russia, but use your VPN and have a look.

Russian weapons using US made IC chips
