Executive Summary
Explosive Ordnance Production Facility: produce drone warheads (shaped charges for anti-armor, fragmentation for anti-personnel), demolition charges, and basic explosive assemblies. Components: shaped charge production line (EFP and HEAT designs), fragmentation sleeve production, demolition charge assembly, and fusing integration. Safety infrastructure per international standards. Target: 10,000 drone warheads monthly, 5,000 demolition charges monthly, full integration with domestic drone production.
In short: 10,000 drone warheads monthly; 5,000 demolition charges monthly; Shaped charge capability (EFP, HEAT)
The Problem
Ukrainian FPV drone success depends on warheads—10,000+ FPV strikes monthly requires 10,000+ warheads. Ukraine initially imported all warheads; when imports lagged, drones sat unused. Drone without warhead is camera with wings. Lithuanian FPV program plans 10,000+ drones—requires equal warhead quantity. Import dependency means warhead availability controls drone program. Additionally: demolition charges for defensive positions, engineer breaching, and sabotage operations require domestic production. European warhead production concentrated in few countries—limited capacity, long lead times. Without domestic production, Lithuania depends on foreign warhead supply for its entire drone program.
