The hacker community “Cyber Resistance” gained access to the account on Aliexpress of the Russian “volunteer” Mikhail Luchin – the occupier, drone operator and accomplice in dropping a chemical grenade on the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. A bank card was attached to the account, the funds on which were intended for the purchase of aerial drones for the Russian occupiers in Ukraine. The funds from the card were spent by hackers on items that would not harm the defense forces of Ukraine.

For $25,000 from the card, Ukrainian hackers purchased dildos, strap-ons and other similar “toys”, which will go to the “satisfied” owner in huge quantities.
Hackers told Inform Napalm that the goods were ordered on March 24-25, some of them have already been delivered – cancellation of the order is unlikely. Unfortunately, it was impossible to buy the goods needed for the Armed Forces at affordable prices – the card is tied to a specific delivery address.
In the context of sanctions, the Chinese Aliexpress is the source of many components of the weapons of the aggressor state. And it is not only about drones of various sizes and purposes – electronic components purchased through a Chinese service were found in the filling of the Kh-101 rocket, the cost of which is estimated at $13 million.
Twitter user Kharkivska Nishporka discovered several $2 voltage transformers, inexpensive potentiometers and other similar components, as well as wires bound with electrical tape inside the “analog hell”. The photo shows the poor quality of soldering of components.
X-101 missile cost about 13 million of dollars each…
Here is the head internals… Some duck tape, some 2$ voltage transformers from AliExpress…

Commentators point out that a rocket with such components cannot cost millions, citing as an example drones of the same assembly, the cost of which does not exceed hundreds of thousands of dollars. Many make a fair conclusion about the importance for Russia of the import of dual purpose goods, which is a source of electronic components. It is also fair to point out that, unfortunately, it works.
