The aggressor country buys parts from 244 companies from 22 countries. The “leader” of the list is the USA – they account for 64% of supplies.

Russia, despite the sanctions, still imports more than two thousand components for its fighter jets, which are produced by 200 companies from 22 countries. This was reported by Economic Truth in connection with the report of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

More than 2,000 components are used in the aircraft of the Russian Air Force: MiG-31I, Su-27SM3, Su-30SM, Su-34, Su-35S and Su-57. With at least 244 companies from 22 countries, most parts still come from Western countries. The “leader” in this list is the USA – 64% of imported parts. The list also includes Japan, Switzerland, Germany, France, Great Britain, Taiwan and the Netherlands.

Leading manufacturing companies include Texas Instruments, Murata Manufacturing, Analog Companies, Kemet, Micron, Maxim, IDT, AVX, Holt Integrated Circuits, Linear Technology, Cypress, Intel and ON Semiconductor.

From these companies, the Russian Federation imported parts worth at least $962.6 million in 2023, which is 19.7% less than in 2022, but 69.69% more than in 2021.

Journalists discovered Western electronics supply chains leading from manufacturers to Russian factories include intermediaries from Hungary, Cyprus, Turkey, China and Russia itself.

At the same time, Russia imported parts for these fighters from only 13 Chinese companies.

The only leading manufacturers whose shipments to Russia decreased last year were Micron (34.56%) and IDT (-45.07%). A large number of parts arrived in the Russian Federation from the Japanese company Murata, which previously announced that it controls its exports.

Last year, Russia spent at least $4 billion on electronics for various military purposes, including the maintenance and production of its fighter jets.

Experts suggest that by 2024, Russian manufacturers may face a shortage of Western parts and will be more actively looking for ways to get them.
