Russia sharply increased the production of combat drones in May. This is reported by Bloomberg with reference to the report of the Center for Macroeconomic Analysis and Short-term Forecasting.
"According to the analytical center, in May Russia increased the production of combat drones by almost 17%, which sharply accelerated production," the agency reports.
According to the Center for Macroeconomic Analysis and Short-term Forecasting associated with the Russian Ministry of Defense, the growth in UAV production in May was more than the average monthly growth of 3.7% in the previous five months. The volume of production in May was 1.6 times more than the average for the month of 2024, the report said.
