Anyone have any data or links on the manufacturing rate the Russia is capable of on many of these systems? I have read they are ramping things up but haven’t see how close to the loss rate they are.
I think the information we are getting is very unreliable regarding this. Already a year ago, we were told Russian manufacturing was nearly at a standstill, because of lack of technology, parts and materials from the embargo against Russia.
It does seem like they don’t have quite the levels of material they did in the beginning, but apparently they still have a lot, and must have significant repair and production capacity.
But so far, I think the Russians have been mostly underestimated regarding production capabilities.
Certain weapons have stopped being produced. As you can see from the missile types that are fired by Russia now compared to early in the invasion, the varieties have gone down to only a few types.
This is because stored supplies are being depleted, components are hard to come by, and Russia is focusing on only producing missile types with the greatest success rate of reaching their targets.
You may be right that they don’t make the most sophisticated equipment, but maybe that equipment was meant more for show of their capability, which is why they now go for what has better results for the cost.
I just saw the latest with Jake Broe on YouTube, where he states that Russia is capable of making way more missiles than previously thought, and they now allegedly have 800 placed at Crimea, which are speculated to be used against Ukrainian infrastructure during the winter.
