Ukrainian Military Intelligence Says Russian Troops Are Using Starlink Terminals in the Front
As the ground war in Ukraine becomes increasingly harder for their ammo-starved forces, another worrying development for them may be taking place up in space.
Of all the military capabilities in this conflict, the NATO ISR is one of Kiev’s greatest advantages. ISR is the ‘coordinated and integrated acquisition, processing and provision of timely, accurate, relevant, coherent and assured information and intelligence.’
This is basically an ‘eye in the sky’ awareness of enemy movements that is vital in today’s warfare – so any Russian step towards equaling capabilities could prove disastrous for Ukraine.
Now, reports have surfaced that suggest Russian forces in the conquered areas are using Starlink terminals produced by Elon Musk’s SpaceX for satellite internet.
