Russia – The Russian volunteer organization “Eltech-Yug” has devised a new method that prevents the operator from controlling drones and forces them to land, fly away, or return to their launch site.
Alexander Kamen, the owner of the organization, indicated in a statement to the “Izvestia” newspaper that the volunteers had invented a new jamming device that allows Russian soldiers to restrict the operator’s control over the drone, which when exposed for 3-4 minutes to the influence of this device, its battery dies and it will not even be able to send information.
He says: “Work on this device continued for regarding six months. Before that there was a regular model “Ornithologist-1”, then there appeared “Ornithologist-1M”, which is a touch model. Soon there will be “Орнитолог-2″ same format as Ornithologist-1, but only to fight suicide drones.”
For his part, military expert Yuri Lyamin pointed out in an interview with the newspaper that there is now a conflict between drones in the combat zone, similar to the conflict between a sword and a shield, so such innovations are necessary.
He says: “Drones are constantly being developed to be able to bypass electronic warfare systems, which are also being improved, which leads to filling gaps.” That is, these areas are developing very quickly. This new device is useful because the more competition there is, the more developments and other things, and it becomes possible to distinguish the most effective means in these ready-made innovations.”
It should be noted that this company is non-profit and its goal is to provide the Russian Armed Forces with devices to control drone activity.
