Russia accelerates the creation of the Rasbet satellite system to control UAVs deep in Ukraine.
Full launch planned for 2027. According to Ukrainian intelligence, the system can also be used to transmit target coordinates to missile systems.
At least 16-17 additional satellite launches are required for deployment.
"The biggest danger is not only that Russia will get an alternative to Starlink, but that relatively cheap attack drones will become weapons capable of detecting, tracking and hitting moving targets deep in the territory of Ukraine."
, said Ukraine's former defense and intelligence advisor Alexander Danilyuk.
