Ukraine sends "Shahda" to the airspace of Belarus, not Russia - research

At the same time, the Iranian type "Shahaned" is more likely to fly into the territory of the friendly Kremlin of Belarus, not return. About it writes Euronews. The authors of the publication refer to the official report of the Air Force of Ukraine. The other day, Russian troops launched 110 SHahd drones and false purposes in Ukraine. Half was shot down, but another 50 were "locally lost". They were not shot down by the air defense system and at the same time they achieved the intended goals.

"This means that they convey false GPS to these drones Shahd-or" Geran-2 "-to make them deviate from the course," explained John Gardy, Deputy Director of the Russia Program project at the Democracy Protection Foundation. According to him, these drones have a built -in system that prevents glutening. "But what they do is as if they are sneaking and not let the drone know that the goals are changing.

This deceives it and makes him move in the wrong direction," he explained in an interview with journalists. This opportunity appeared due to the advanced tactics of the EW. According to the Washington Institute of War Study, the number of drones that were "lost" through Ukrainian radio electronic obstacles has increased significantly from October to November.

During the attack on October 2, Ukraine directly knocked down 78 UAVs, and 23 were "locating loss", ie 22% of the total number of 105 launched drones. Two months later, on Monday, December 2, 45% of Russian drones disappeared due to Ukrainian obstacles of the EW. Some of them are explained by the action of the Eelectronic Protection system "Pokrova". But this is not the only system used by Ukraine, Hardy explained.

"Kiev also has systems of distributed sensors that connect to the tablets of mobile groups to fight" Shahmed ", with machine guns installed on them," he said. On December 4, the Construction of the Air Force stated that there were 18 out of 50, ie 36%. In addition, to force them to land or "get lost", the Ukrainian system can also reprimand Russian drones back to Russia or, in some cases, into a friendly Kremlin Belarus.

The Belarusian Independent Monitoring Group Hajun Project told reporters that "systematic flights in Belarus" began on July 11, and since then the number of Russian drones, reinstated into the country's airspace, has increased every month. "For example, here is monthly data: July-nine drones, August-12 drones, September-27 drones, October-49 drones, November-151 drones. 148 of them are Shahd drones," Osint-researchers said.

According to Hajun Project, 38 Russian Russian drones, which became a record, flew into the airspace of Belarus on November 25. On December 3-4, it was stated that at least 15 Russian "shened" found themselves in Belarus from Ukraine and the Russian Federation. "The drones flew from Russia again, passing the Belarusian corridor, flying through the region, Vasilevichi and Gomel," - said in the publication on December 4.

The first such "arrival" was recorded at 21:32 - the drone flew from the Bryansk region and flew from Ukraine towards Rypots (Gomel region). It is confirmed that 6 of the 15 drones that were in Belarus were from Ukraine. At the same time Belarusian aviation was not lifted into the air. According to Hajun Project, the next aviation of the Air Force of Belarus sometimes, but not always, nevertheless flying to the southeast of the country, when drones are massively flying to Belarus.

But the details are not available to the public and are often not disclosed. "On October 3, one of the drones crashed in Kalinkovichi. It was recorded by a surveillance camera and the video was spread in local chats. The next day, the security forces (Alexander) Lukashenko detained the owner of the house whose camera removed the drone of drone," - said in Hajun Project.

According to analysts, this case indicates how the power of Belarus tries to hide the subject of drones Shahd with the help of repression so that there is as little information as possible. "Therefore, there is every reason to believe that there were more drones in Belarus, but there is simply no information about it," - said representatives of the monitoring group. "When you change the coordinates of these drones, you do it gradually.

You do not want to say that the goal is diametrically opposite to where they fly. You seem to gradually reject them from the course," John Gardy explained. In the last few weeks, users have placed screenshots of their location on a map with localization in the Russian or Belarusian territory on the social networks of Ukraine. In response, the General Staff has warned that electronic systems used to reflect Russian air attacks can affect the time and geolocation in phones.

They advised to disable automatic time updating in the phone and the fact that during air alarm, the accuracy of satellite navigation may change. According to Gardy, the Russians have made many modifications after the mass production of Shahanedov, this applies to the guidance and shock system. In particular, the Comet-M system was added-a GNSS transmitter that is not affected by muffling systems.
