Ukrainian forces have successfully targeted key components of Russia’s military-industrial infrastructure. Drones struck the “Kronshtadt” plant, located in the town of Dubna in Moscow Oblast. Footage recorded by local residents—later shared online—suggests this was not the first time the facility has been hit.

The Kronshtadt plant is considered one of Russia’s most advanced drone production centers. It manufactures both reconnaissance and long-range strike UAVs. According to Ukraine’s General Staff, the facility produces a range of unmanned systems including the Orion, Inokhodets, Molniya, Grom, Termit, Helios, and Sirius drones, along with ground control units.

Additional reports indicate that the Kronshtadt facility is also involved in the production of the recently developed “Banderol” cruise missile, designed for launch from unmanned aerial vehicles. While little public information is available about this missile, it is described in defense briefings as a low-observable, high-precision weapon system. It is intended for targeting air defense units, electronic warfare systems, and other critical infrastructure.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted that “intense activity of enemy air defense systems was observed around the facility, and the strike on the target was confirmed.” The attack resulted in damage to part of the plant. The Kronshtadt factory boasts full-cycle production capabilities—from composite airframes to onboard electronics—and plays a key role in Russia’s strategy to replace imported components with domestic alternatives.

The facility is part of a larger military-industrial complex, which also includes the Dubna Machine-Building Plant (DMZ), known for developing tactical and strategic missile systems, as well as the Raduga Design Bureau. On that note, the Raduga plant was separately targeted by Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU). Russian forces have been using Raduga’s facilities to manufacture various types of cruise missiles, including “air-to-air,” “air-to-ground,” and “surface-to-surface” variants. Among the missiles produced there are the Kh-101/555, Kh-69, and Kh-59MK—systems that have been used by Russia to strike civilian targets and instill fear among the population in Ukraine.

Russia’s Ministry of Defense has not yet commented on the extent of the damage.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian Armed Forces’ drone units carried out a strike last night on Angstrem JSC, another facility located in Russia’s Moscow region. The attack reportedly hit the target area. Angstrem specializes in the development and production of microelectronic components that are widely used by companies within Russia’s defense industry.
