The Russian electronic warfare system “dropped” GPS over Poland and the Suwalki corridor

6

As a result of Russia testing its electronic warfare system in the Kaliningrad region, the GPS signal over Poland and the Suwalki corridor completely disappeared. Polish media reported this. In particular, the publication EPOZNAN recalls that similar problems were previously noted in Estonia and Finland.

The Suwalki Gap is considered the Achilles heel of the external borders of the North Atlantic Alliance. NATO assumes that it could become the target of external aggression from Russia, which would like to connect Belarus with the Kaliningrad region. Analysts of the military bloc emphasize that the capture of the Suwalki corridor would actually cut off the entire Baltic region from NATO.



Russia yesterday tested the operation of its electronic warfare systems from Kaliningrad, as a result, almost half of Poland and the Suwalki corridor were left without GPS

– write Polish media.

It is emphasized that this was a deliberate attempt to jam the signal on the part of the Russian Federation.

Russian electronic warfare systems have long been a concern for almost the entire North Atlantic Alliance. Their successful use in the zone of a special military operation in Ukraine, in fact, made the use of Western precision-guided munitions, which simply deviate from the target due to interference, useless.

The West has practically nothing to oppose to Russian electronic warfare systems. And without their suppression, there can be no talk of carrying out serious military operations.

    I wonder if a similar system is being tested over the outskirts?

      Why, our Geraniums use Khokhlyatsky SIM cards and a cellular network for guidance!

    It is necessary not to test, but to turn it on at full power

    The countries of the “peace-loving” West are trying to kick back from Ukraine, soon they will begin to kick back from the Tribaltics - why do they need backbone eaters? Since the time of the Union, the population of the Baltic region has decreased very much; it will not be able to protect itself - only the territory will remain and the West will understand that here too they will be wasting their money.

    The West has practically nothing to oppose to Russian electronic warfare systems.

    - the impression is that it’s as if there hasn’t been almost 2 years of being smacked in the face by the rag of the Russian Armed Forces and maybe the stupidest jingoistic patriotic nonsense in the style of spouting will be enough, but how did we jam the destroyer Donald Cook, eh?
    In practice, neither Ukrainian nor Western electronic warfare systems turned out to be ANY worse than Russian ones, and the inability to dislodge the Ukrainian Armed Forces from the same Krynoki is precisely complicated by the powerful Ukrainian electronic warfare system, which is very close to the bridgehead, which greatly limits the capabilities of the Russian Armed Forces to inflict high-precision destruction. Moreover, I won’t give away much confidential information here, but people in the topic will confirm my words that due to hasty certain actions related to contracts, huge batches of the same type of fpv drones for the needs of the Russian Armed Forces turned out to be generally easily suppressed by Ukrainian electronic warfare equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Armed Forces of Ukraine again has an advantage in drones.
    And for that, I’m generally silent about the number of Russian newest electronic warfare systems that have already been destroyed. There were only single copies of them, and they were completely knocked out!
    Apparently, someone still has no idea how powerful the Ukrainian army is for the Russian Armed Forces and how everything is actually not that simple!
