Western Tech In Russian Bombs? Moscow Strikes Ukraine With EU & U.S. Components | Geran-5 Drone
Ukraine downs a new Russian Geran-5 drone capable of flying up to 600 kilometres per hour. Ukrainian intelligence says the missile-like drone uses American and German microchips. Investigators found components from Texas Instruments, CTS Corporation, and Infineon Technologies. Manufacturing dates show the chips are not pre-war stockpiles. The discovery highlights how Western technology still reaches Russia despite sanctions. Officials say these components are critical to Russia’s drone production and ongoing attacks.
