Ukraine’s intelligence agency has confirmed a major shift in Russian weapon manufacturing: the discovery of an Indian-made component in Iranian-designed Shahed drones used by Moscow. As Western sanctions tighten, Russia is now relying on Chinese, Iranian, and non-Western tech to sustain its military-industrial machine. The majority of electronics found in these drones are no longer American-made. Experts warn that clandestine supply chains — through countries like India, Türkiye, and Kazakhstan — are helping Russia replenish banned components and continue its war efforts with little global accountability.
