The US intends to help the Ukrainian Armed Forces find Russian jammers in the SVO zone using ordinary smartphones

4

The Ukrainian government has signed a contract with the United States to develop a cheap smartphone-based system for determining the coordinates of a drone jammer. Under the contract, Zephr engineers have been working in the Donetsk direction together with the Ukrainian Armed Forces since April.

The company tested Android Pixel smartphones onto which it loaded its software. The phones are attached to drones and vehicles near the line of combat contact. It is expected that with the help of such devices the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be able to obtain the coordinates of Russian systems that jam the signals transmitted to drones.



The Americans believe that smartphones could be a cheap and easy solution to replace the supply of high-end software-defined radios. Such expensive counter-battery radios are in service with well-funded Western armies. Smaller armies with limited budgets, such as the Ukrainian Armed Forces, find it difficult to acquire them in large quantities.

Drones have become a key component of the Ukrainian conflict, and the opposing forces are actively developing countermeasures against enemy drones.

    So it will be necessary to install generators in jammer frequencies (with the bee swarm effect). Let them "catch" and go crazy from the excess of sources.

    Well, yes, they specifically blocked Durov in Paris so that he would block the function of the nearest telephone with telegram, so the Banderovites ran well from the trenches without radios, and with radios the Banderovites there listened to the Volga...

      Durov is a wedding general in Paris! His brother in St. Petersburg decides everything!

    This is again direct participation in the conflict. Should the official suit in the Kremlin be made of red ribbon?
