In 2019, Contactmodule was reportedly developing control panels for an automation and fire-control system for Russia\u2019s Air and Missile Defense Forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2026, the company is scheduled to deliver control panels and cockpit keyboards for the Pechora 2M anti-aircraft missile system to Oboronitelnyye Sistemy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report describes the case of Contactmodule as a \u201cclear example of how a Belarusian company can become a hub for the assembly of military products\u201d for Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to BelPol, a significant share of the components used by the company are electronic parts and materials of US and European origin. For example, the company reportedly uses electronic components from manufacturers such as Texas Instruments and Switzerland\u2019s STMicroelectronics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Belarusian authorities support Russia in the full-scale war against Ukraine launched by Moscow in February 2022. Hundreds of Belarusian industrial companies are reportedly manufacturing and supplying goods for Russia\u2019s war effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"insert-block\">\n\n    <div class=\"insert-block__img\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"354\" height=\"236\" src=\"https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/dgb_fb_logo_1128x752-354x236.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/dgb_fb_logo_1128x752-354x236.jpg 354w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/dgb_fb_logo_1128x752-734x490.jpg 734w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/dgb_fb_logo_1128x752-178x118.jpg 178w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/dgb_fb_logo_1128x752-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/dgb_fb_logo_1128x752.jpg 1128w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/>                        <label class=\"insert-block__tag--mobile\"> Politics<\/label>\n\n                            <label class=\"insert-block__tag--mobile\"> Security<\/label>\n\n                <\/div>\n    <div class=\"insert-block__text\">\n                    <label class=\"insert-block__tag\">Politics, Security<\/label>\n                <h3 class=\"insert-block__title\">Lithuania expels 22 Belarusian employees of EU-blacklisted company<\/h3>\n        <div class=\"insert-block__descr\">September 7, Pozirk.
