Russian military-industrial complex enterprises have ordered more than 100 thousand noise-resistant "Kometa" navigation modules in 2026, - Ukraine's GUR. According to data published by Ukrainian intelligence, Russian industry is expanding the production of satellite navigation modules designed to operate under conditions of electronic jamming. Currently, 16-element antenna arrays are widely used. At the same time, preparations are being made for serial production of modifications with 20 antennas. In addition, the power steering approves the use of 32-element grilles made in China and products manufactured in the Alabuga SEZ. "Shavit" is designed to maintain stable reception of satellite navigation signals in conditions of electronic counter-warfare. The module uses several correction antennas and digital signal processing to determine the direction of interference sources and reduce their influence. Various modifications of the system are installed on Russian missiles, attack drones and guided aircraft munitions, including Geranium family products and UMPC kits.
The main developer and manufacturer of the modules is the Cheboksary plant VNIIR-Progress. To fulfill orders, the capabilities of ABS Electro group plants and third-party manufacturers are used. According to the Chief Intelligence Officer, the design of the Comet uses foreign electronic components, including the programmable microcircuits of the Cyclone Ultra. Ukrainian intelligence identified 37 names of foreign components and 28 companies involved in production and logistics networks. The volume of orders exceeding 100,000 units indicates the scope of the Russian military-industrial complex's need for noise-resistant navigation systems. However, the number of modules ordered is not equal to the scale of their production or delivery to actual soldiers. VK Max Zen.
