This morning, long-range drones from the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) Special Operations Center A struck the production facilities of the Plandin Instrument-Making Plant in Arzamas, Nizhny Novgorod Region, Russia, according to sources.

This enterprise is part of the Russian military-industrial complex and specializes in the production of gyroscopic devices, control systems, on-board computers, and other components for Kh-32 and Kh-101 missiles.

The plant is part of the Tactical Missile Armament Corporation.

According to preliminary data, it was hit by at least 4 precision strikes by the Security Service of Ukraine Special Operations Center A's drones.

"Russian military-industrial complex enterprises working for the war against Ukraine are legitimate military targets. The SBU continues to work on the demilitarization of facilities that produce weapons for terrorizing peaceful Ukrainian cities," an informed source in the SBU says.

On August 9, the SBU struck a warehouse with Shahed drones in Tatarstan, more than 1,000 km from Ukraine, with long-range drones.

The warehouse stored ready-to-use Shahed strike drones and foreign components for their production.
