Conflict · Russia targets 2026 · ArchiefRussia Hit 2026 Missile Targets in 7 Months as Satellite Rival ExpandsGeschreven 7 september 2026 om 21:22 UTCKijkenTranscript0:00Russia has already met its full-year0:01production targets for Zircon and Oniks0:03missiles [music] in the first 7 months0:05of 2026 with overall output running 100:07to 20% above the 2026 goal. While its0:10dedicated RasVet satellite network has0:12reached 16 [music] satellites in orbit0:14in a rollout moving faster than0:15predicted. Starlink stood at more than0:1710,000 [music] satellites as of June and0:19has given Ukrainian forces a major0:21advantage in drone operations and0:22battlefield communications. A gap that0:25begins to narrow as RasVet expands0:26[music] to 16 satellites. Russia met the0:29annual targets for Zircon and Oniks in 70:31months with total missile production0:33exceeding the full-year plan by 10 to0:3520%. That campaign is backed by a0:37stockpile of about 130 Iskander-M0:40missiles after 65 were made in July0:42alone. [music] Ukraine's emerging0:44ballistic missile industry and drone0:46production facilities have become a0:47[music] priority target for that missile0:49campaign. And this picture so far comes0:51from a single transcript that has not0:53yet received broader independent0:54confirmation. For crews who rely on0:57resilient satellite links to fly drones,0:58[music] coordinate units, and sustain1:00domestic weapons production, the1:02combination of over-target missile1:04output and a growing Russian alternative1:06to Starlink raises the cost of staying1:08connected and the risk [music] to1:09factories that supply the front. And1:11what remains unresolved is whether1:13unconfirmed reports Tuesday that Russian1:15ballistic missile launcher systems were1:17destroyed [music] inside Russia not far1:18from the border signal any slowdown or1:21whether the surge and expanding1:22constellation [music]1:23will keep pressuring those programs.1:25For more stories that matter, like and1:27subscribe.
