The Konotopsky network is earning hundreds of billions on defense: billions in imports, shell companies, and a Russian link to Ajax Systems
It has become known that the company “Fire Point” of Shtilerman received from #Міноборони 107 billion UAH for 2025–2026 years. However, the question of the wealth and contracts of Mykhailo #Федоров’s favorite and sponsor — Oleksandr #Конотопський — is somehow being widely ignored. The businessman remains untouchable, so we want to tell the truth about him.
So, Konotopsky controls the groups “#Стрим Techno” and “#СКАЙФОЛЛ INDUSTRIES,” which produce the Vampire, Shark, and P1-SUN UAVs. LLC “Strym Techno” imported goods worth $447 million in 2025 and $789 million over 8 months of 2026. The total value of imported components reaches $1,15 billion. ❗️Taking into account taxes, assembly, and an allowable margin of 25%, the company’s real revenue is $1,6–1,8 billion, or 70–80 billion UAH for 2025–2026 years.
Notably, for comparable January–July periods the company’s imports rose from $197 million in 2025 to $698 million in 2026. 🤷♂️That is, during Fedorov’s tenure financing increased by 3,5 times compared with the times of #Умєров. The bet was placed on the P1-SUN drone, effective against gasoline-powered Shaheds but powerless against jet-powered Geran-2s. Society sees the results of this vision every day during air attacks.
Most component purchases are made through foreign shell firms: Polish GLOBAL TRADING TECHNOLOGY sp. z o.o., D&D GROUP, NEXORA GLOBAL, and Estonian DMO COMMERCE. If you include other affiliated entities, notably SKYFALL INDUSTRIES and Cyprus-based AJAX, the total amount of funds reaches 100 billion UAH.
⁉️You may ask how Konotopsky gets such insane profits. Our answer is obvious — monopolization of defense procurement. Ajax Systems founder Oleksandr Konotopsky, together with the leadership of the Ministry of Defense and the director of the state enterprise “#Укроборонсервіс” Yevhen #Гвоздарьов (the former head of “Strym Techno”), created a closed system for securing direct contracts without competitive procedures.
By the way, the State Service of Special Communications tried to recover almost 500 million UAH in fines from “Strym Techno” for contract nonperformance, but the lawsuit was withdrawn due to a pretrial settlement. As we can see, no damages were recovered. Moreover, the firm continues to receive new contracts.
And this is against the backdrop of official statements about exiting the aggressor country’s market in 2022, Ajax Systems products continue to be sold in the Russian Federation through the Ozon and Wildberries marketplaces and distributor networks. Ajax Cloud’s server infrastructure still provides updates for the Malevich OS and technical support for equipment operating in Russia, including devices connected to the Rosgvardiya systems.
Deliveries are carried out through logistics chains in Poland, the UAE, and Kazakhstan. In addition, numerous instances have been recorded of Konotopsky’s systematic trips to Russia over 2017–2021 years with migration registration.
✅Based on our materials, complaints, and legal work regarding Ajax’s illegal activities, the Obolonskyy Police Department of the National Police in Kyiv has already opened criminal proceeding No. 12026100050001492 under part 1 of article 364 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (abuse of power or official position). We continue procedural oversight and demand that law enforcement bring all involved persons to account.
