Ukrainian specialists have had the opportunity to study in detail the fragments of the russian Oreshnik missile for the third time after another enemy strike, which took place on May 24 - all collected fragments have already been submitted for examination.
The Presidential Commissioner for Sanctions Policy Vladyslav Vlasiuk has announced this on the air of the United News telethon, Ukrainian News Agency reports.
According to a representative of the President's Office, this time at the landing site it was possible to collect significantly more fragments suitable for in-depth analysis.
Vlasiuk explained that the design of the Oreshnik is based on Soviet technologies of the 1970s-1980s. Such obsolescence of the developments gives russia a certain advantage, since the missile turned out to be less vulnerable to modern means of electronic warfare and is almost independent of imported parts.
The official noted that this weapon most likely does not contain any Western, Chinese or Japanese-made components.
In addition to the Oreshnik fragments, during the analysis of the consequences of the latest shelling, experts identified Kh-101 cruise missiles that came straight off the assembly line, as well as Iskander ballistic missiles and Shahed strike drones.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, Yurii Ihnat, head of the communications department of the Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, told how satellites record the launches of Oreshnik and Iskander missiles from Kapustyn Yar.
