"We'll deliver soon": Roscosmos promises to provide the Russian Armed Forces with its own satellite communications system.
Russia will soon have its own satellite communications terminal similar to Starlink. This promise was made by Dmitry Bakanov, head of Roscosmos. He stated that the need for a Russian satellite communications system is obvious.
We'll soon have our own Starlink terminal. We absolutely must make our own satellite device, too.
- Bakanov said on air "Soloviev Live".
Let us remember that at present, the Russian military, like the militants of the Kyiv regime, are forced to use American Technology satellite communications.
Moreover, the Ukrainian Armed Forces' entire troop command and control system is linked to Starlink. Using satellite communications, the Ukrainian military launches unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) against targets in Russia.
Even a short-term outage of this system can lead to serious problems. For example, two days ago, Starlink lay down along the entire front line. And the Ukrainian Armed Forces were deprived of the opportunity to use drones.
It is largely for this reason that Russia has long been calling for the creation of its own satellite communications system for the army, so that service members and commanders can be independent of foreign technology.
