Research
The Western sanctions have failed to undermine the Russian military production. This implies that both the targeting, and implementation of sanction regime have been wrong.
It is highly plausible that their design has not been based on any thorough understanding of the Russian military manufacturing base, its rationales and tradeoffs, bottlenecks and chokepoints. To efficiently target the military production chain, you must understand how it is organized. Now the latter requires a serious OSINT investigation.
And that is what we did. The Rhodus Intelligence investigation “How does Russia make missiles?”covers four defense corporations of Roscosmos, Tactical Missiles, Almaz-Antey and Rostec. We examined 28 enterprises producing the key ballistic, cruise, anti-ship and air defense missiles.
Based on a broad range of sources, we have built a representative picture of the manufacturing base supporting the Russian nuclear/nonnuclear deterrence system. Most important of all, we reconstructed the logic and rationales behind it.
OSINT Investigation
Roscosmos is the sole producer of intercontinental ballistic missiles in Russia, including strategic ICBMs and SLBMs.

The Almaz-Antey is the monopolist producer of air defense and missile defense systems, and the Kalibr family cruise missiles in Russia.
Coming Soon
The Tactical Missile Corporation manufactures almost all the cruise and anti-ship missiles in Russia, as well as guided bombs.
Coming Soon
Rostec encompasses most of the land army weaponry, plays a major role manufacturing critical parts, components and equipment for other missiles producers and supporting their production processes.
