No more aircraft carrier for the russian navy. The lack of resources seems to bite, although some of the alleged reasons aren't a total lie:

Russia May Finally Abandon Its Cursed Aircraft Carrier
Russia's aspiration to return its only aircraft carrier to operational service may have finally been sunk. Russia looks set to abandon its efforts to return its largest surface vessel to operational service.

I have no experience of tracking inventory outside of aviation but in aviation everything needs a birth certificate right through to installation on the aircraft. If it is a rotable (think wheels, brakes, engines and everything else that can be serviced and returned to service) or lifed item (one that must be scrapped after n hours or cycles in service) it also must be tracked when on the aircraft, right through the overhaul/service/modification/repair systems until removed and scrapped. Some lifed parts must also have a scrapping history. Every lifed and rotable item has an individual serial number.
Such a coincidence: Zelensky just claimed that 50% of the drones in last night's attack (over 500) were Shaheds. However, it takes time to study all the data and especially the wreckage, so I think his figure is a ballpark one.
"They were all Zeroes"...
30% is the estimate of local experts and relates to the late 2024 and 2025 periods in total. I think it makes sense, as it coincides with several reports of air defence units and air force spokesperson.
Then there is a difference in the ranges. Popular and cheap decoys such as Gerbera are under 300 km, not enough to reach the western regions. So, Shahed's share can be higher in the west and lower in the east.
Chernivtsi were hit last night by only 4 drones and 1 missile, with civilian casualties, unfortunately. In the morning, drone wreckage was located and identified as Shaheds, while the missile remained unknown.
Kharkiv is under frequent attacks by short-range Molnia. Odessa was hit since March 2025 by jet-powered Banderol several times.
