Russian military learned to change the frequency of drones in flight: can the Armed Forces do it
As you can see from the screenshot, the firmware of drones called ELRS allows you to change the frequency of control of UAV in flight with a remote control. In this case, the antennas on the remote should correspond to the frequency ranges that will be used. Sergei Beskrestnov says that now Russian pilots of drones are learning how to do it. He states that he does not know whether the forces of Ukraine's defense work the same. "The Russians switch to other FPV frequencies in the air.
Massively taught how to do pilots. I do not know if we work the same way, so I will leave this screen here. " The question of how they work with different frequencies in the Armed Forces in an interview with focus was told by the veteran of the ATO and the Russian-Ukrainian war, Yevgeny Dyky. "It has come to the fact that Ukrainians have taught drones to roll from one frequency to another, if the UAV" feels "that it is mocked by the Russian system of Reb.
That is, the Ukrainian frequency change system can work even better: the Russian version is only about changing pilots from the remote. Wild notes that until recently the Russian remedies of the Reb have been ahead of Ukrainian, but now the engineers of the Armed Forces managed to reach the same level. Ukrainian operator communication systems with drone are capable of bypassing a large number of means of HRs of Russian invaders.
"The Russians are very proud of their systems of HPs and this is due to historical reasons," says the military. "In Soviet times, it became clear that the USSR is hopelessly lagging behind in the rocket program, so the emphasis was on the EW to reduce the accuracy of possible blows of Americans" . Yevgeny Wild says that in the face of the lack of artillery, the Armed Forces units are more likely to fight with the enemy at a much smaller range that drones can overcome.
Therefore, the importance of the remedies of the HRs, as well as counteraction to it, has increased very much. The Russians also consider FPVrookes a key weapon in certain areas of the front. They use them massively near the time ravine and cause heavy losses of the Armed Forces. In the Zaporizhzhia region, they, on the contrary, complain of great losses from Ukrainian drones. Particularly harm is caused by the great, in the past the agricultural drone, which the Russians call "Baba Yaga".
