F-16 safety and danger to the Crimean Bridge: Why is it important to destroy Russian Reb

Ukrainian armed forces in the literal sense of the word hunt for Russian installations of radio -electronic struggle (EIT). And regularly report the entrances - in the reports you can read about such successes in a separate line. The focus with experts understood why it is so important to destroy the Russian Edges and what Ukrainian operations they interfere with.

International media notice that the electronic wrestling means by which Russians try to listen to or deafen the Armed Forces negotiations, to knock high -precision western weapons and drones from the course, and have long become one of the priority goals of the Ukrainian army - from local to that of thousands of kilometers. And the Armed Forces are becoming more and more successful in this struggle.

Moreover, destruction operations are carried out not only in the occupied territories, but also in the territory of the Russian Federation, where radars "feel" not only what is happening in Ukraine but also in NATO countries.

For example, in March 2024, in the Zaporizhzhya direction of the Armed Forces, operators of the reconnaissance complex of the 3rd SCO regiment were discovered, and then destroyed the Russian complex of the Reb "Palatin"-the latest and rather rare Russian system, taken by the army of the Russian Federation only in 2019. It is a large enough design mounted on the KAMAZ truck. It is designed to suppress radio systems as well as for radio electronic intelligence.

The capabilities of the complex, as noted by Russian resources, allow to "suppress" the enemy enemy systems in ultra -short -lived and short -wave range at a distance of 20 kilometers. Another station was also lost in the Zaporozhye direction in early April. It is a complex of radio electronic struggle "resident". It creates obstacles to Ukrainian drones within a radius of 50 kilometers. On Donetsk-hit the machine of the radio electronic struggle "Borisoglebsk-2".

Since the beginning of a full -scale invasion, the Russian army has relied on radio -electronic fighting systems. Many settlements in the northern regions were connected, and each call was traced. Subsequently, the locals, in fact, spoke about the presence of large stations with radars and antennas in almost every occupied settlement.

Because of this, the then Minister of Defense Alexei Reznikov in early March 2022 urged Ukrainians to destroy Russian electronic warfare and electronic reconnaissance systems and report on their defense forces. The latter in the first weeks of the Great War reported on the destruction or admiration of Ukrainian defenders of "repellents", "Krasukha" and "residents". Radio electronic struggle is a kind of armed struggle. Every day, the forces of defense on the battlefield face her work.

The IP stations are intended to identify, change or suppress radio, mobile or satellite communication of the enemy and protect their own. That is, it performs radio interruptions for radio -electronic reconnaissance, communication systems, complications of the enemy and data transmission. Some stations may fail any electronics that finds themselves in the area of ​​their impact.

They also help to obtain information on the location of radio electronic means and weapons management systems and enemy troops. To explain not to the military, but, for example, drivers, you can pay attention to how the GPS systems do not work when announcing anxiety or at the border from the Russian Federation. Because there are many devices that use any type of communication or just electronic components on the battlefield, such weapons are often crucial.

It can not only suppress the signal, but also create, for example, a false map, which the projectile or aircraft will be perceived as valid. Nowadays, the Russian Federation has several dozen different systems, in particular, "Moscow-1"-it can work at a distance of up to 400 kilometers "," Krasukha-4 "-is able to suppress the satellite communication in a radius of 300 km and the muffling Detection, as well as "Infun", "Leer-3".

Earlier, experts said that the landfill of the new equipment was occupied by the Luhansk and Donetsk region, where they were noticed by the OSCE mission. 30 different means of electronic struggle of different range and work at different frequencies. With the help of such systems, Russians often have an advantage on the battlefield.

In particular, the American Institute for the Study of the War in June 2023 said that Russian electronic struggle is a key factor that complicates the counter -offensive of Ukrainian troops in the Zaporozhye direction - due to the impact on the work of high -precision missiles and violations of communication in the forces of the bar. The Ukrainian defense forces are looking for Russian radar systems outside Ukraine.

For example, not so long ago in the Russian Federation significantly damaged a single of the available radar systems of the fire type "Container 29B6". Moreover, both Russian and Ukrainian sources reported that the Armed Forces had an attack by a drone on April 11, 590 of a separate radio unit of the military unit 84680, which is hundreds of kilometers deep into the Russian territory - in the Republic of Mordovia, in Kovylinko, southeast of Moscow.

The Russian Federation has developed and commissioned this station for 15 years. The uniqueness of this radar is that it is part of the Russian early warning system to identify threats that approach thousands of kilometers, such as winged and hypersonic missiles, as well as aircraft take off at a distance of more than 2000 km. That is, the radar controlled the airspace around Europe. Experts say that such a station in the Russian Federation is one.

There they wanted to create another, under Vladivostok, but the idea was not realized. "This station can be watched very far due to the reflection of radar waves. Valery Romanenko. Among those who "feel" up to 5000 km, such as intelligence station and suppression of communication in the short-wave range "Murmansk-BN". It is a huge design on several KAMAZ, which the Russian Federation uses to disrupt the work of Ukrainian air intelligence sensors.

According to experts, such injuries are important in the context of future provision of F-16 fighters to Ukraine. "To provide such aircraft, it is necessary to create inventories that they could use and provide the conditions for safe use of F-16 fighters in Ukraine-air defense, destroy enemy intelligence agents," says Focus chef-editor of the information and consulting company Defense Express Valerius. .

- We already know about the destruction of the radar in the Bryansk region, which could look deeply at Ukraine for 700 km, as well as strokes in the Crimea, where such systems were also destroyed I exclude that difficulties and delays are related to the desire of our partners to make these planes an effective tool for solving the tasks facing the Armed Forces, not just a target for the Russian Federation.

" Although air expert Valery Romanenko specifies that the defense forces of defense had been destroyed by radar stations. "The Russians trigger drones far deep into the country to identify our planes. After that, other drones fly and destroy them. fuel tanks, "he adds.

Another thing is that after the destruction of complexes in Dzhanka, Russia could lose not only Mi-8 or KA-52 helicopters, launch installations of S-400 SCRs, which were based there, but also radar stations and equipment surveillance of air space "foundation- M ". These tools, in particular, were also used to protect the so -called Crimean bridge. After we destroyed similar radar in the Crimea last summer, the Black Sea Fleet headquarters in Sevastopol was destroyed by the next blow.

"Reb is their chance to survive. Modern war requires modern decisions. This is how we got an advantage over the Russians at the beginning of the war, when the drones were massively used: first Maviics for observations and discharges to the enemy, and then FPV to destroy the enemy and technique .

The enemy did not stand on the spot, so the drones have become not only salvation for us, but also the only effective means of fighting - systems that are able to "neutralize" not only Copter Hundreds of lives.

In November 2023, the then Commander -in -Chief of the Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny in his material for The Economist said that in the Kupyansk and Bakhmut directions the enemy actually created an echeloconized system of EWS, the elements of which are constantly changing their location ", and in order to liberate territories, Ukrainian forces. You will have to break through this electronic shield of Russia.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is constantly mentioned by the Reb, recently he stated that in Ukraine they plan to build a comprehensive system of management of radio electronic struggle in order to make it impossible to make the efforts of Russian invaders to pilot various air equipment in the sky over Ukraine. The Ukrainian military says: without the latest system of rings, the war is really not won.

After all, they can help both in the fight against drones in the field and to intercept Russian rockets. "We currently have 50 types of such ribs of domestic production and about the same amount of western. Some of them can protect individual samples of equipment, fighters. The positions of the brigade can cover other HPs, such as" Prometheus ", performing radios, preventing information, making information, making air And land intelligence, "says Valery Romanenko.

The analyst also mentions the National Eelectronic Wrestling System called "Intercession", which is put into operation and is able to knock out Russian "Shahda" in the sky over Ukraine. "There is also Bukovel, Anclaw - they are very effectively blazing Russian connection signals and affecting some types of drones. Then some of them just fall. Not all drones have a return program," he says. The expert reminds that there is currently a means of help from the US and Germany.

Their number could have achieved such "density and such efficiency that now we may not spend rockets on knocking down some Russian means of destruction. " Again it is about Shahda. With rockets more difficult. "Unfortunately, we cannot interfere in navigation systems of Russian rockets," he explains. " RBs are more difficult to protect with the Russian missiles. , but now it is important to increase their number in the middle of the country, " - summarizes the expert.
