"We lose the best people": the Armed Forces soldiers sell the non -working means of the RB, how to check them
Due to the great need for the means of HRs in Ukraine and even in Europe, many manufacturers have appeared, but some of them are openly speculating and making money in the war, inflicting fighters for danger because they do not provide the stated characteristics. Recently, Konstantin Yurchak told about one such case on his YouTube channel.
Driving another batch of assistance to the Kursk region of the Russian Federation, the volunteer talked with the boys and heard from them about the "dome" complex against UAV for 12,000 euros, mounted on a quad bike, at which the fighting up to ten times carry personnel and ammunition every day. Konstantin Yurchak was embarrassed by the phrase that the edges are "acting" on all ranges "that is physically impossible to realize in a compact form factor.
It turned out that the ranges there are not provided there. Only 900 MHz against shock FPV-aroma, 2. 4 and 5. 8 GHz (should affect DJI Mavic copters) and module of suppression of satellite navigation (GPS). The dome Ear with a range of 2. 4 and 5. 8 GHz, installed on a moving object in practice, almost does not work, because the DJI copters when they lose their signal continue movement or rise up.
When they go beyond the action of the radio interruption, and the signal appears, they go to the target and make a discharge from a higher height, where the edges will not reach them, because the radius of lesions of drones in dome complexes is ten times smaller than that of antitrone guns. "The GPS navigation module in the dome rib on the fighting line does not make any sense.
Each pilot will say that there are almost no satellites in the war zone! Because there are powerful GPS signal suppression systems. Therefore, the drones are almost all flying in Atty mode," The volunteer assured in a focus comment. Konstantin's acquaintances have studied the complex of electronic struggle and found that the capacity of the modules in this dome Qupole is only 20 watts, and this is very little for the antitrone "dome".
Soon, volunteers brought the 900 MHz drone to the soldiers to check the doubtful remedy. During the test, this remedy did not affect the copter at all, that is, it turned out to be completely powerless. It turns out that every time the military went to the war zone, they could die, relying on this complex. They were just lucky that the Russians did not attack them. "Thousands of guys who are cheated on whom they are being made.
The question is not even in money, but that they are simply condemned to death," the author commented. In a conversation with focus, Konstantin Yurchak added, he was told that the aforementioned remedy was made in Europe, but Ukrainian manufacturers also supply non -working equipment for the defense forces. Some of them are quite known and even closely cooperated with the state. "I will never understand the inhuman people who make the cost of life of our people.
Business is business, always make money, but let's let's be a good product, quality. And when they give non -working or cheap spare parts, and they sell expensive to get rich - I consider it betrayal. Konstantin emphasizes that first of all it is necessary to understand, drones in the war are constantly developing, and with them - and Reb. It's like poison and antidote.
At the beginning of 2023, the rebes against the FPV-punks operated on the range of 900 MHz, but since then the situation has changed greatly, and now UAVs have been flying by 100, 300, 700, 900 MHz. Therefore, the complexes of the IIT should be constantly improved, and most devices do not work because they are technologically outdated. "The lower the purity, the larger the antenna, and the distances should be between them.
So when I am told that the device is all frequencies and show a box of 20 by 30 cm, it cannot work on all laws of physics as stated. In order not to tell you who would not be the manufacturer of this device - it cannot influence all ranges, " - said the volunteer. There is a direction of directional and dome action. If, for example, an antitrone gun, it can act at a distance of more than 1. 5 kilometers due to the narrow beam about 10-15 degrees.
If you emit radio interruptions in all directions (360 degrees) with the same power, then the range of the lesion is significantly reduced. To add power, you need more energy, so a larger battery. Therefore, a remedy for suppression of only an average frequencies from 700 to 1000 MHz requires 3 kW rechargeable station to work consistently for at least a few hours. Konstantin recommends the military working with the IP systems to have a spectrum analyzer or at least a simple drone detector.
The spectransalizer will show at what frequencies radio signals are radiated and whether the remedy remedy acts in the stated ranges. Cost-about 4000-15000 hryvnias in Ukraine, can be cheaper if you order from China. Drone detectors are not so informative for this problem. "It is necessary to join both volunteers and manufacturers. I recommended that with each rebon to transfer the spectroanist.
The price of the question compared to the complex is not so big, but the guys will be able to check whether he works or not," - said the interlocutor. If you connect to the spectroanalizer a directional antenna, it will warn about the approach of UAVs per kilometer or one and a half, and also determines the frequency at which the enemy drone operates.
If the Drone analyzer is installed Ukrainian firmware - it will show the possible name of the drone and when the enemy UAV approaches the built -in dynamics will signal. Some manufacturers give sensors that, when joined to the complex, they show whether it works but does not determine the frequency. They can glow if working only part of the modules. It is necessary to check the remedies not only when buying, but also regularly when used, suddenly some module has refused or burned.
Especially those with pin antennas, because on LBZ they are damaged, from strokes against branches of trees or from vibration when traveling on the field of battle, contacts are destroyed and oxidized, which would not say manufacturers. If the antenna is not connected when the complex is switched on, then its module burns, and therefore will not be able to protect against drones in its range. Improperly installed remedy will not work.
Konstantin Yurchak has repeatedly noticed antennas for the HPs, installed directly behind the cabin, under metal nets or arcs. Theoretically, such remedies could "burn", because the metal reflects radio signals, and the modules can fail. If you place the complex directly in the cabin, then powerful radiation has a detrimental effect on the crew body and the modules will burn. Mistakes when used also threaten the life of fighters, and not only because of the harm of health.
The enemy can catch radios, determine its source, and then attack the position with drones or artillery. The enemy has enough technology that even see Mavic drones with 1W transmitters, and the higher the power, the easier it is to detect the source. And the EC has a power of 100, 200, 300 watts and more. Therefore, in order not to get under fire, the military must be able to use radio electronic struggle.
To do this, my friends prescribe rules, develop remote control of the IEC systems, create systems of UAV protection for specific tasks. "The drone or HR operator is the number one target. It can fly - and the boys will not become, " - said Mr. Yurchak. The same applies to drones protection (their enemy sees hundreds of times better than the control panels), they should be switched on only when needed and necessarily remotely.
Detection is especially dangerous when using HNs in positions, because it is a static goal, unlike moving equipment. One or two enemy drones will fall, and the third will hit, even if the desired range is suppressed. Now technologies allow Russians to quickly change frequencies.
Constantine had a case where the military was asked to get Mavic while he communicated with them and asked if they knew what firmware to put, how to work with a repeater and a remote antenna, and during that time they were sent by relatives. It seemed to the soldiers that their knowledge of civilian life would be enough, as a result, 15 minutes after launching the drone came under fire, two of them were killed.
"They just wanted Mavic, thought they would become mobile and more efficient, and did not listen to the advice. Now there are no guys. The relatives wanted to help, and thus destroyed them, practically killed, as it may be bitter. So with Reb, if you do not know how to establish it and how to work with it, " - said Konstantin Yurchak. According to Konstantin Yurchak, the biggest problem in the field of EW is the ignorance of the military and volunteers who work with him.
They often do not know how to check the complexes and install them. It is a specific topic that requires at least basic knowledge of physics, electronics, radio engineering. "Most of these" sellers ", the developers of the Reb, they, as a rule, made the turn, made cool advertising: expensive, then they sold it all, the boys told that it was working. Or if they brought to part, then the commanders assured, the commanders All is well. he.
There are already courses where the military is trained for free. Volunteers who buy and pass on the means of defense forces should also understand this area and be sure to transfer knowledge to the military. It is much easier for them to study in the rear than to fighters on the front line, who is constantly performing combat tasks and barely have time to rest.
"I every time I put a reb or burn on the front, teach guys, work with them, test devices, show how to use them, and only then I am sure that they will help them. It's a weapon. If you just sit and hope for it, Thinking that it will save you, there will be no person. , - Konstantin addressed the manufacturers. Before sending the remedy to the fighters, you need to ask them well about what tasks it is needed, where they will be installed and used.
