Shakhad's Dron-Kamikadze AS of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation received Starlink for feedback of unlimited range, analysts explained. Ilon Musk did not comment on the situation. Russian designers have attached Shahhad's drones "Shahamed" Tarlink SpaceX Billionaire from the United States Ilon Mask. Thanks to this modernization, the drone can be used to intelligence of air defense forces.

In addition, it will be able to direct it on a new trajectory to work for the purpose required by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The modernization of Russian drones using Western technologies was informed by analysts of the Portal Defense Express. Analysts said that from their own sources received photos of the fragments of "Shahanedov", which the Russians attacked Ukrainians on the night of September 25. Among the debris was noticed the residues of the Starlink logo.

The wreck review showed that SpaceX satellite communications were contained in a special fuselage cavity. Due to this adaptation, the shock drone of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation was able to transmit a signal to the distance of the flight - that is, up to 2 thousand km. Two photos of Russian drones were posted on the portal. On the first - Shahheda wreckage, set out in the grass in unknown terrain. The second is an enlarged fragment that clearly see the Starlink logo.

The article explained what new opportunities the advanced "shahas" of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation received. First, they can shoot the terrain during flight and pass it on to Russian operators. In this way, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will be intelligence and can detect the means of air defense of Ukraine, analysts emphasized. Secondly, the connection makes it possible to adjust the trajectory after starting.

In this case, the connection has an "unlimited range", wrote on DE. "There is a very wide and powerful feedback channel with drone, the possibility of transmitting information from it and changing the flight task at any distance," analysts summed up. On the page of the owner Starlink and SpaceX, Ilon Mask on the social network X (Twitter) there are still no comments on the satellite terminal that got into the territory of the aggressor country and worked freely.

Earlier, Focus wrote about Starlink's satellite communication platform related to SpaceX, American billionaire Ilon Mask. For example, the Ministry of Defense in 2023 reported that the antennas during one of the attacks on the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Crimea suddenly stopped working. In the winter of 2023, the Starlink Director declared a restriction that could be introduced for the Armed Forces because the equipment is used in the weapon.

Meanwhile, since the winter of 2024, Ukrainian intelligence said that Starlink had found the Russians directly on the front line. GUR started hunting on the device, and investigators found out that the Russian Federation was receiving the equipment illegally, among other things, through Poland. In August of the same year, the Russian command boasted the Marine drone "Muren-300", which was equipped with the means of satellite communication of Ilon Mask.
