To complicate the nighttime work of Ukrainian air defense, Russia has begun using black strike UAVs Shahed-136. However, this does not prevent the Ukrainian military from destroying these enemy drones. The National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP) has replenished the Database of Foreign Components in Weapons with chips from updated Iranian Shaheds.
The Ukrainian Defense Forces have already shot down UAVs of this type in Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Kherson region.
Without the foreign-made chips, these drones would not be able to fulfill their missions and attack Ukrainian civilian cities.
Despite the constant modernization and localization of production, depending on foreign technologies and components, Russian "Shaheds" still differ little from Iranian ones.
This proves once again that foreign technologies and components have no place in aggressor weapons. The world must unite and investigate how such components get to Russia to bring the accomplices of this war to justice.
Earlier, the NACP has already supplemented the Database with foreign-made parts of Russian Supercam S350, Granat-4, Lancet UAVs and Iranian Shahed-136 and Mohajer-6.

It is worth reminding that the role of the NACP in sanctions policy is defined in the Roadmap for Individual Sanctions developed by the Stanford International Working Group on Russian Sanctions. In particular, the NACP identifies companies that supply electronic components to Russia.
