Errors in the positioning of civilian ships and radar satellite images give reason to assume that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation use a powerful device that creates obstacles in the area of Sevastopol. Naval News reported on Tuesday, November 28. According to analysts, in recent weeks, numerous surface ships in the harbor of Sevastopol have registered their location as an international airport, about 8 km from Harbor.
The obstacles recorded by the European Space Agency's satellite earlier this month also indicate a powerful HIT system. The assumption that the Russian military had installed temporary GPS blankets at least on one of their warships was expressed in July 2023. Samuel Bendett from the Naval Analysis Center suggested that Moscow had installed such muffins even before a full-scale invasion.
"The Russians have long been engaged in a radio electronic war, and they do it quite well," James Black said from the Rand Corporation center. EWS can be useful offensive tools and key to UAV protection. Moscow inherited a huge number of RBS systems from the USSR. Black noted that the Kremlin uses the EW to suppress drones, while Russian commanders and officials do not hide that they protect "key points" in the occupied territories of Ukraine.
