How many other "GRAU" arsenals are there in Russia, like the one that was blown up in Toropka?
The 107 GRAU arsenal in Toropka is one of the 7 large weapons bases in the European part of Russia. Analysts talk about 6 others.
📌 23rd arsenal of GRAU
It is located only 16 km south of the already destroyed 107th arsenal near the city of Toropets. This warehouse is about half the size of the already destroyed one. What kind of ammunition is stored on it is questionable.
But the fact that the Ukrainian special services hit the 107th shows its priority over the 23rd.
📌 13th arsenal of GRAU
Further north in the Novgorod region near the village of Kotovo. It is about 680 km from the border with Ukraine, that is, about 200 km further than Toropets. This warehouse has a total area of about 3 square km.
📌 51st arsenal of GRAU
It is located east of Moscow near the city of Kirzhach in the Vladimir region, so it can be a difficult target due to the density of air defense equipment.
This is a rather large warehouse with a total area of about 3.5 square kilometers. The border with Ukraine is about 530 km.
📌 73rd arsenal of GRAU
In the Vladimir region, next to the villages of Ivanovo, Krutovo and Eseno, which can be considered the largest, because it occupies an area of about 7 square meters. km
It also underwent repair and modernization between 2018 and 2021, just like the 107th arsenal. This may indicate that it stores not only a lot of ammunition, but also quite expensive products. It is located 650 kilometers from the border.
📌 67th arsenal of GRAU
But it can be considered one of the closest, located near the city of Karachev, Bryansk region - 114 km.
It is located close to a population of 20,000. At the same time, as of 2021, detailed satellite images show that part of the ammunition in this warehouse with a total area of about 3.5 square km were stored in the open air.
📌 68th arsenal of GRAU
The 68th GRAU arsenal near the city of Mozdok in North Ossetia is the most distant, about 700 km from the front line. This is another updated warehouse with an area of 2.2 square km
