The groups said the latest update adds more than 1,500 company logos, new export functionality for large datasets, and personal information linked to enterprise directors, including phone numbers and email addresses.

The project also incorporates over 150 newly identified companies connected to Russia’s military-industrial complex.
In a statement published alongside a video demonstration of the updated interface, the developers said:
“Added more than 1,500 enterprise logos. Added personal information of company directors, including phone numbers, email addresses, and other data. Added more than 150 additional companies. Improved export functionality for large datasets.”
According to OSINT Varta and Lex Talionis, the teams are continuing work on future updates and regularly change access links to the platform because Russian actors repeatedly attempt to remove or block them.
The interactive map contains data on Russian defense enterprises, their industrial specialization, corporate connections, and personnel linked to the sector. At the launch of the project, the developers stated they had identified more than 6,000 enterprises and approximately 1.2 million employees connected to Russia’s military industry.
Earlier, Ukraine struck the Russian defense electronics plant “VNIIR-Progress” in Cheboksary, approximately 1,000 kilometers from the border, using an FP-5 “Flamingo” long-range cruise missile followed by a second wave of Liutyi strike drones.
According to OSINT analysts and Russian local authorities, the facility—which produces navigation and electronic components used in Iskander-M missiles, Kalibr cruise missiles, drones, and other military systems—was hit by explosions and fire during the attack.
