Nuclear Anti -sulfur weapons of Russia threatens Starlink: Ilon Musk reacted

Satellite Internet Starlink is now used by both Ukrainian and Russian troops, but everything can change. Russia can develop nuclear anti-satellite weapons that are dangerous for the Starlink online operator, which is used not only by Ukrainian weapons but also by the Russian Armed Forces.

This conclusion was made by PCMAG "I cannot tell about the specific nature of the threat, but I can confirm that it is associated with the sipping potential developed by Russia," the White House representative John Kirby said recently. However, sustainable capabilities can be a threat to Starlink Satellite Internet from SpaceX. The Kremlin has repeatedly threatened to destroy Starlink for supplying a high -speed Internet to Ukraine, which is defending from Russia's Armed Forces attacks.

However, SpaceX CEO Ilon Musk seems to be skeptical of the possible use of Russia with Russia. "Russia is tragically weak in space for the once proud space superpowers," he wrote in H. The media suggests that the sipping weapon is still in development, because, according to Kirby, it has not been deployed. The adviser also stressed that, despite Russia's aspirations for the implementation of this decision, there is no direct threat to anyone's security.

He noted that even if such a weapon is created, it will not be used to attack people or attacks on Earth. It is unclear whether Russia has developed a new technique to disable satellites like those used by Starlink, or whether the system, tested in 2021, is meant. Then the Russian Federation launched a rocket to destroy the decommissioned satellite in the orbit of the Earth.

As a result of the impact, the satellite flew into pieces, and some of the Starlink satellites had to maneuver, evading the debris. Some media outlets believe that it is a brand new weapon. Yes, The New York Times reports that the sustainable potential of the Russian Federation is "nuclear weapons of space base". The PBS NewShour media states that the Russian sipping system can be simply "nuclear", but at the same time have "capabilities of radio electronic struggle" to destroy satellites.

Currently, the White House "closely monitors" Russia's development of these weapons. US Presidential Administration, Joe Biden, also plans to briefs for Congress leaders and allies, as well as establish "direct diplomatic interaction with Russia," Kirby said. But the White House is still refrained from the disclosure of additional information. Earlier, we reported that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation use thousands of Starlink terminals.

According to the head of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kirill Budanova, the Russian soldiers use the Starlink system for a long time and received these terminals through private Russian companies, which, in turn, purchased them through intermediaries. SpaceX stated that it does not lead any business with Russia and does not provide the Internet Starlink in the Russian Federation.
