The Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) has published information on the War&Sanctions portal regarding almost 200 new parts and components used in six types of Russian weapons.
These are parts and components that were found in the CRP antenna of the Russian "Shahed", the North Korean KN-24 ballistic missile, the computer from the X-47 "Dagger" missile, as well as the Supercam S350, Gerbera, and Zala drones, GUR reports .
Thus, only two American-made chips were found in the new CRP antennas for the Geran-2 drone.
"This indicates Russia's efforts to reduce its dependence on components from countries that have imposed sanctions against it," the department noted.
The "Shaheeds" used in 2025 have new anti-jamming antennas with Chinese markings. In one such antenna, out of 15 components, only two are manufactured by American companies Texas Instruments and Linear Technologies.
Most of the other parts are made in China . These are transceivers, generators, signal converters, and other microcircuits. For example, the main chip of the CRP antenna, which analyzes incoming signals and decides which ones to ignore, is made by Beijing Microelectronics Technology Institute (BMTI).
For the first time, an Indian-made component was discovered in a Russian weapon — a clock buffer from Aura Semiconductor.
"The manufacturers of two more components have not yet been identified, but they are likely also of Chinese origin," the GUR added.
In total, the "Weapon Components" section on the War&Sanctions portal has already recorded 4,672 parts found in 164 samples of weapons that Russia used against Ukraine.
Let us recall that the War&Sanctions portal was launched in April 2022. Last year, on International Children's Day (June 1), a separate section appeared there with a database of Russian and Belarusian kidnappers of Ukrainian children.
This year, specifically in January, the State Aviation Administration published data on Russian UAV manufacturers - about 79 enterprises participating in cooperation on the production and supply of drones.
