  • Ninefold production growth at the Alabuga plant points to Russia's expanding drone arsenal and pivot to Geran models.
  • On July 8, 2025, Moscow launched over 700 drones in a single night, a record high for drone attacks.
  • The Kremlin used 426 Shahed attack drones and 19 missiles, killing one Ukrainian and injuring two in Kyiv and two other cities.
  • Looking ahead to November 2025, Russia may deploy up to 2,000 drones in a single strike, according to an Institute for the Study of War report, if current growth continues.
