4/4 Investigating the aftermath of long-range strikes or sabotage is very challenging because a large fireball in footage does not always lead to conclusive evidence from satellites. In some cases, despite the fire and explosion, the damage remains limited.

3/4 The team analysed most of the operations, focusing on those more relevant, such as air defence attrition, particularly in the Occupied Ukrainian Territories. From an initial analysis, we have strong evidence of a correlation between AD destruction and LRS.

6. Disrupting nodes like Alabuga is not simple. But understanding its ecosystem and the vulnerabilities hidden within it is essential to countering Russia’s drone surge. Especially when one of the key components of Shaed is still hand-made.

5. But here’s the paradox: Alabuga’s “self-sufficient” war industry depends on fragile supply chains.
Carbon fibre production is impossible without an adequate flux of oxygen & nitrogen, once supplied by Air Liquide’s infrastructure.

4. Inside the plant, workers hand-layer carbon fibre for Shahed airframes. That carbon fibre comes from Alabuga-Fibre (UMATEX), acquired by Rosatom, aiming to hit 10,000 tonnes per year by 2030.

3. Alabuga has expanded quickly: new production halls, dormitories, and workshops. Thanks to tax breaks, customs benefits, and state investment, it has turned it into one of Russia’s most important industrial clusters.

2. Over the past 5 months, Russia has tripled its use of Shahed-type drones, now averaging 103 launches per day. Ukraine hasn’t had a single day without attacks. In April 2025, Russia launched 2,485 Shaheds. By July, 6,297. That’s a 1,378% increase compared to July 2024.

Alabuga plant: No Chain is stronger than its weakest link
New @tochnyi.info investigation on Shahed drones and the Alabuga plant, first in a mini-series.
If the Shahed is the arrow and the launch sites the bow, today we cover the blacksmith forging the arrow.

3. The site spans up to 1.6 km in diameter, far larger than most known military antenna arrays. Six concentric rings. 180 evenly spaced points are likely for vertical antennas. This isn’t a radar. It’s something bigger: a CDAA a Cold War–era listening giant reborn. 🎯

The FPV drones were equipped with flexible linear-shaped charges. These copper-lined warheads do not produce a pointed stream of molten metal. Instead, they create a linear molten jet - capable of slicing through structures, such as aircraft, with surgical precision. 5/6

🔟 Europe’s choices now will shape global stability. A weak response emboldens the “Axis of Tyranny.”The time for diplomatic posturing is over. Europe must take concrete action to reform its defence strategy or risk being unprepared for future threats.

9️⃣ Standing armies alone aren’t enough. Europe must expand reserve forces & modernize training programs to sustain a prolonged engagement if necessary. Europe needs a backbone of troops which can be mobilised to support the professional army, which also needs expansion.
