Debris analysis shows the Oreshnik missile relies almost entirely on Russian and Belarusian semiconductors, not advanced Western or Chinese components.
Early strikes used parts mainly from 2014 to 2018, but May 2026 debris shows over half were manufactured in 2023 to 2025.
This suggests Russia has moved from depleting Soviet-era stockpiles to actively rebuilding production, challenging assumptions behind current sanctions policy.
