Foreign components are flowing to warring states from all corners of the planet.
The first photographs of the wreckage of the Ukrainian rocket 'Flamingo' have been published, showing details of Chinese manufacture and an engine of Soviet or Czech type.
It is noted that the rocket was shot down by Russian military forces using the 'Pantsir' system. After being hit, the rocket fell in the forests of Russia.
It is indicated that the rocket was produced as cheaply as possible.
Earlier, the media reported that Ukraine lacks the financial capabilities for rocket production, including for the production of the 'Flamingo' cruise missiles.
Meanwhile, South Africa has opened an investigation after it became known that locally produced components were used in Russian drones involved in the war against Ukraine, writes Bloomberg.
This concerns a laser rangefinder created by Lightware Optoelectronics Ltd., located near Pretoria. The device, which is typically used in civilian applications—from drones for wildlife monitoring to robotic control systems—was found in the Russian kamikaze drone 'Garpia-A1', reported Ukraine's special envoy for sanctions issues, Vladislav Vlasuk.
