New Small Russian Cruise Missile Captured By Ukrainian Intelligence
Lightweight, low cost, and reportedly full of foreign components, Russia's Banderol cruise missile has emerged on the battlefield in Ukraine. Lightweight, low cost, and reportedly full of foreign components, the Banderol missile could put Ukrainian air defenses under even greater strain.

The GUR also identifies an RFD900x telemetry module (either sourced from Australia or a Chinese copy of the original), an inertial navigation system (“likely of Chinese origin”), rechargeable batteries from Murata (Japan), and Dynamixel MX-64AR servo drives from Robotis (South Korea).
There are also “almost two dozen microchips” in each missile, “from U.S., Chinese, Swiss, Japanese, and South Korean manufacturers,” the GUR adds. These are supposedly sourced mainly by the Chip and Dip network, one of Russia’s largest electronics distributors and a company that’s also under sanctions.
