GU MO identifies 54 KRET enterprises under Rostec for drone/EW components

Bottom line

Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate (GU MO) identified 54 KRET enterprises under Rostec specializing in electronic warfare, drone navigation, and missile components, highlighting the integrated nature of Russia's defense industrial base for unmanned systems.

Why it matters

Understanding the structure of Russia's defense industrial base, particularly the role of KRET in producing EW and navigation components for drones, is crucial for developing effective countermeasures and targeting strategies to degrade Russian unmanned system capabilities.

The GU MO listed 54 KRET enterprises under Rostec that specialize in electronic warfare, identification friend or foe (IFF) systems, drone navigation, anti-drone systems, and components for Iskander and Zircon missiles. This intelligence underscores the interconnectedness of Russia’s defense industry, where a single conglomerate produces critical components for both drone and missile systems, complicating targeted sanctions and supply chain disruptions.
