On Tuesday, partisans from the Atesz group revealed on their official Telegram channel documents related to the production of Ch-32 cruise missiles in Russia.
"We previously reported that our agent had infiltrated an arms factory in the town of Dubna (...). We have gained insights into the production plans and the actual capabilities of the facility," the statement noted.
Members of the Atesz group highlighted that the Russian company "did not meet its production target for the year 2022". Andrey Peregudov, the director of the Military-Industrial Complex department of the Russian Federation, instructed the management to ramp up the production of this weaponry.
Additionally, the reports from the resistance movement indicate that in 2024, "the plant is expected to produce 224 missiles" for use by Putin's forces. However, the company faces challenges in fulfilling orders on schedule. Delays are predicted for this year as well.
