The article presents the results of a study of the chemical compositions of solders used for manufacturing of electronic components of the X-101 cruise missile and 3M-14 cruise missile of the «Kalibr» system, the S-300 surface-to-air missile, the «Geran-2» UAV and civilian-use electronics manufactured in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The research was conducted by domestic experts using non-destructive scanning electron microscopy to identify the country of origin of strike UAVs used by the russian side during attacks on civilian infrastructure facilities in Ukraine.
The results of the analysis of the chemical composition of solders of fragments of electronic components of the X-101 cruise missile, 3M-14 cruise missile of the «Kalibr» system and S-300 surface-to-air missile system demonstrated that they have almost identical chemical composition, corresponding to tin-lead solders according to GOST 21930-76 (state standard), which are widely used in the defense industry of the russian federation.
The results of the solders study of electronic components of the UAV «Geran-2» fragments show that they have an identical chemical composition, which is almost identical to the solders used in the production of civilian-use electronic components manufactured in the Republic of Iran.
The article presents the average concentrations of chemical elements that make up the solder fragments of electronic components of cruise missiles X-101, 3M-14 of the «Kalibr» system, S-300 surface-to-air missile, «Geran-2» UAV and civilian-use electronics manufactured in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The research results, taking into account the «Geran» and «Shahed-136» UAVs designs' identity, led to the conclusion that the UAV used by russian federation under the name «Geran» is the Iranian UAV «Shahed-136» manufactured in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
