The main supplier of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation: which is important releasing the plant attacked by drone in Bryansk

The plant sent more than 90% of its products to the Russian military. They made corps integrated circuits and transistors for them. The Silica El plant in Bryansk, which was one of the blows of Ukraine's drones on the night of August 30, was one of the main suppliers of electronics for the production of military equipment, Defense Express writes. Almost all products of the enterprise, more than 90%, went to customers from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

The plant is about 110 kilometers from the Ukrainian border and became a convenient target for the Armed Forces drones. According to the expert of the newspaper, the plant is one of the largest suppliers of military microelectronics, which the Kremlin poured $ 5 million annually, and in 2014 within import substitution invested at once $ 160 million. Due 7 million units of production.

The plant in Bryansk is considered one of the leaders and ranks second in the production of microelectronics in Russia. For the most part, "Silicon El" produces corps integrated circuits and transistors, but mostly worked on transistors, diodes and simple modules. There is information that the plant has mastered the production of 500 nm a technical process with a plan of transition of 350 nm. It is worth clarifying that there are 5 nm processors in the world today, and chips will appear soon 2 nm.

Silicon El products were supplied to various development bureaus, such as Agrophone, Agronomy and Silico-5. The "peaceful" names should hide the fact that these DCBs work under the leadership of the Ministry of Defense of Russia and create new types of weapons. The Silicon El plant was one of the participants in the Alternative program, which is underway for the development of new radar systems on active phased lattices for aircraft, fleet and air defense.

According to Defense Express, one blow to the factory with a drone is unlikely to completely fail, although there began a fire. But more significant and increased attacks can be significantly benefit from the Armed Forces, as the Russian army can be left without supplying the necessary microelectronics for the production of weapons, which is difficult to get in the conditions of sanctions.
