At the same time, the investigation of journalists indicates an increase in the procurement of circuits through third countries. For the analysis of production capacities, the author refers to serial rockets. Each X-101 missile has a unique 13-digit serial number. The first three digits of "315" mean the code of the Rainbow Design Bureau. The next three digits mean a version of the rocket - mainly it is either "648" or "263". All missiles with "263" are probably done after 2021.
The author comes to this assumption on the basis of the following numbers of the serial number, which mean the quarter and year of production. The last characters indicate the party and the rocket number in it. In Russia, rockets are actually used from the production line, which can indicate inventory reduction. At the same time, the Kremlin probably managed to increase the production of missiles. The initial grades of three missiles per month were incorrect.
Since 2018, the Russian Federation has produced at least one X-101 every four days. The Ukrainian air defense has knocked down a rocket that was only partially installed. Based on the available figures (XXXXXX828242424-known symbols of the series), the author suggests that the X-101 was made in the second quarter of 2022 of the 7th party. The rocket number was 20. Taking 20 as a minimum batch of deliveries, it is concluded that the Russian Federation has made at least 402 missiles since 2018.
Thus, it turns out that in 1698 days the Russian Federation produced 402 missiles - it is 0. 24 rockets a day. That is, one product is collected in about 4 days. At the same time, it is emphasized that the assessment may be inaccurate due to data limitations. We will remind, on December 12 in the GUR declared that in the Russian Federation there will be enough missiles for 3-5 waves of large-scale shelling of Ukraine.
