   "Russia is estimated to be able to produce up to 25 Oreshnik missiles monthly, which equates to production of 300 missiles per year"
   🤨 The Russians only have ~300 active duty ICBMs total*, and as of 2022 at least hadn't quite finished replacing Topol-Ms with Yars, despite starting deployment in the early 2010s. 25 per year would seem more likely given the deployment rate
