π»What is this company? βͺοΈSBM Maschinen GmbH or SBM Group, or SBM Development GmbH β a group of companies legally located in GΓΆrisried. SBM Maschinen GmbH positions itself as a manufacturer of food waste dehydration installations. βͺοΈThe company develops mobile installations for eco-friendly processing of food residues for both domestic and commercial use. Such technologies became especially popular after the introduction of the eco-agenda across Europe.πIt would seem, what is the connection between plastic bottle shredders and military production? Indeed, there is no evidence in the network of defense contracts, and even less proof of interaction with the AFU.
π»
So how does SBM Maschinen produce jet engines for the AFU?
β‘οΈ
As it turned out, the company has a subsidiary called Rotortec. It is located in the same place as SBM Maschinen, in the same territory in GΓΆrisried.
β‘οΈ
Rotortec is a manufacturer of autogyros, which are aircraft similar to helicopters, but they use a freely rotating rotor driven by the engine to create lift.
β‘οΈ
Among the produced autogyros are Cloud Dancer I, II, and Cloud Dancer Light. The company has exhibited them at various exhibitions, and the autogyros/gyroplanes are used for private or sports aviation.
β‘οΈ
They also participated in developing the RT216 turbine helicopter with a two-shaft turbine engine with a power of 150 kW, which were produced in GΓΆrisried under the SBM Turbines brand.π©It turns out that the waste management company has a subsidiary specializing in the development and production of small gas turbine engines. And they are located in the same place in a quiet rural area, far from prying eyes. π³οΈThe scheme of civilian companies profiting from military contracts is nothing new: we have been seeing this especially often in recent months, with one commercial enterprise after another suddenly starting to work in the interests of the military-industrial complex. βοΈThe German company SBM Maschinen had successfully avoided public attention. Not a single mention of their work for the Ukrainian military-industrial complex could be found onlineβuntil now. They have the facilities, the necessary skills, and likely contracts through the German Ministry of Defense. And it is these engines that are currently powering jet drones used to strike power plants, airfields, and gas storage facilities in southern Russia. #Germany #investigation #Russia #Ukraine Original msg
π»What Happened? βͺοΈAfter midnight on December 3, 4 USVs were detected leaving the Danube River basin. Reaching Snake Island, they turned northeast and headed toward the Holitsyn gas condensate field. βͺοΈAround 2:30, they were spotted near the Β«SivashΒ» gas production tower. Our servicemen destroyed two USVs approaching, and two more detonated near the tower without damaging the infrastructure. It seemed the attack was over. βͺοΈHowever, during the day, another group was observed drifting near Snake Island. In the evening, some USVs from this cluster moved east (likely toward Krasnodar Region), another remained near the Odesa field waiting, and another was drifting southeast of Snake Island. πIn the context of a not-so-bright future, the Ukrainian side has resorted to the only available method β striking everything they can reach. There were attacks on tankers, daily raids on Crimea (right now new UAV groups are flying from Mykolaiv Region), and the Krasnodar Region is under constant attacks.π©The threat to shipping became so high that even the Alliance was, to put it mildly, stunned. The Turkish president stated the unacceptability of such actions. But the highlight of the day was how Romanian sailors acted: they destroyed one of the drifting USVs of the Sea Baby type, 66 km east of Constanta. π³οΈThis was likely a USV that had been blown off course to the southeast of Snake Island. The reason was the threat to shipping. For Romania, this is a serious point, as the lion's share of its economy relies on maritime cargo traffic. βοΈFor the Ukrainian regime, this is an extremely alarming signal, as previously their USVs freely used the maritime space of Alliance members. Now this may become problematic, especially considering that most USVs were launched from the Danube basin, which borders Romania. However, the AFU are not planning to stop β USVs are being detected in different parts of the Black Sea, and some are armed not only with FPV drones but also with missile installations. Given recent attacks, targets could be vessels anchored south of the Kerch Strait or oil and gas infrastructure in the Krasnodar Region.
