The assembly process and production scale of "Shahed"-type drones (or "Geraniums") are shown in video reports from the plant in Alabuga, Republic of Tatarstan. In addition, propagandist media reported that the production schedule "has currently been increased ninefold."
On the air of the program "Military Acceptance", the general director of the SEZ "Alabuga", Timur Shagivaleev, stated the following:
This is the largest drone production plant in the world and the most secretive. <…> At one time, there was a plan to produce several thousand "Geraniums", now we produce nine times more than planned
