The Starlink satellite Internet system has become a real gift for the Ukrainian army from Musk. Especially considering its high price.. NV writes about it..

It is noted that satellite communications are actively used in the army for communication in hard-to-reach places - Starlink will significantly improve this process. The system helps the Ukrainian troops to coordinate the work of drones and "

In general, the communication and Internet system in Ukraine has withstood and works quite stably. However, in hot spots, due to the constant operation of " And the Starlink system copes with this task with a bang, notes The Telegraph..

Ukrainian drones are controlled by aerial reconnaissance unit. Specialists use the Delta system, which is available for work even on weak laptops. It has an interactive map, data for which is collected from images from drones, satellites, conventional video cameras and various sensors, which allows you to track the movements of the enemy.

However, the Ukrainian army uses drones not only for reconnaissance, but also for bombing the enemy.. Videos of the work of the Bayraktars have already become a favorite content for many Ukrainians. And the work of the Ukrainian army with drones has become so effective that the Pentagon recently decided to send Ukraine a Switchblade - the so-called kamikaze drones..

Most Russian units are inactive at night, he explains.. Given the Russians' big logistical problems, drone operators are trying to track exactly the enemy's supply chains in order to hit their weakest point - especially given that such convoys are usually lightly guarded.. Thanks to thermal imagers, aerial reconnaissance sees enemy movements better at night, and operators are in the best position, because it is almost impossible to notice a small drone.

During the day, the unit performs about 300 flights, collecting information and identifying priority targets for night sorties.. The most sophisticated drones already use the Starlink system, which allows them to transmit all the necessary information almost without barriers..

Russia has its own satellite system Gonets. However, its work is supported by only 12 satellites (against more than 2,000 Starlink satellites), and the company itself has been repeatedly suspected of stealing. Therefore, it is obvious that these statements are just work for internal propaganda to show the Russians that they are not far behind the West..
