Russian Missiles Used in Deadly Kyiv Strike Contained Newly Made Western Components

Russian cruise missiles used in a deadly strike on Ukraine on Thursday were manufactured this year using Western-made components, according to Ukrainian presidential sanctions commissioner Vladyslav Vlasiuk.
Speaking to journalists, Vlasiuk said fragments recovered from missiles that struck a residential building in Kyiv, killing at least 24 people, showed parts of an Kh-101 cruise missile, one of Russia’s most advanced long-range weapons.
According to the Financial Times, the missile contained more than 100 components originating from Western countries.
An Kh-101 missile identical to the one that hit the residential building and examined after a Jan. 20 attack reportedly contained microchips from US brands including Texas Instruments, AMD and Kyocera AVX, as well as Germany’s Harting Technology Group and the Dutch company Nexperia.

Vlasiuk said the findings confirmed a trend showing that Russia is using missiles “straight off the assembly line.”
