Kyiv says Britain and other countries have not yet imposed sanctions on some of the companies involved, and is urging them to do so.
The document says some modern electronic devices used in warfare use components made by British companies, and more effective action is needed to prevent the use of foreign components.
The report says that eight major Russian companies are involved in the production of electronic warfare equipment. Among them are the scientific research and production association Strela, the scientific research company Protek and the concern Radioelektronikos technologie, which were not subject to the sanctions of the United Kingdom.
The report also identifies UK-made components that have been found in Russian electronic warfare equipment.
Semelab Ltd, which has its registered office in Woking, Surrey, and is part of TT Electronic Group Holdings, found the transistors in battlefield jamming and communications equipment for radio-controlled devices. Mobile short-range radar detected power supply equipment from XP Power, headquartered in Singapore and listed on the London Stock Exchange. And parts believed to be made by Golledge Electronics, based in Ilminster, Somerset, were found in the guidance system.
Meanwhile, the related companies claim that from 2022 in February or previously suspended all trade with Russia.
In addition to imposing sanctions on identified Russian companies, the report also proposes the introduction of a “unified component database” that would list the technologies used by the Russian military in its electronic warfare equipment.
