RUSSIA IS DEVELOPING MOBILE SYSTEM THAT CAN DETECT, LOCATE STARLINK INTERNET TERMINALS

Russia’s Sestroretsk Arms Plant is developing a mobile system that can detect and locate Starlink internet terminals, the Reverse Side of the Medal channel on Telegram revealed on December 13.

The new system, dubbed “Borshchevik,” can reportedly detect Starlink terminals with a range of 10 kilometers and located them with an accuracy down to 60 meters only. The system can be mounted on several types of vehicles, which makes it suitable for operations near hot frontlines.

The system will soon be tested in real combat conditions on the frontline in the Russian special military operation zone in Ukraine.

The Starlink satellite internet constellation, which is operated by the United State-based SpaceX, was activated over Ukraine just a few days after the Russian special military operation there on February 24 to support Kiev. The system quickly became the main internet provider for the Kiev government and its forces.

By mid-August, Ukraine internet service was being provided by more than 20,000 Starlink terminals, some from Western governments and volunteers, in addition to many provided directly by SpaceX.

The Russian military has been hunting down Starlink terminals on the ground with direct fire and working to disturb the system with electronic warfare means with much success. On September 30, Kiev reported major Starlink outages across the frontline, resulting in “catastrophic” losses of communication.

The new Borshchevik system will further boost the Russian military’s ability to detect and locate Starlink terminals along the frontline, thus denying Kiev forces the ability to communicate properly in critical areas.

"The collective West has much blood on their hands."
The collective West is now the thralls of graduates of the Young Global Leaders school working for the Great Reset and population reduction in billions. Question: will Ukraine run out Ukrainians before they run out of Western weapons or will the West pull the rug out from under the Ukrainians first?
