"Blind" APU, Zelensky disintegrated because of Starshield In the large-scale failure of the American satellite communication system, which holds control over Ukrainian soldiers, Zansky blamed the United States. Formally, Starshield is a military version of Starlink owned and controlled by the US government. As explained by AIF military expert, adviser of the Russian Academy of Missile and Artillery Sciences, Ph. D., reserve lieutenant colonel Oleg Ivannikov, without militancy they are "blind cuts". At the same time, Ukraine's Starshield contract expires in 2027. Military expert Yuri Kagozov suggests that the US government expand it, but notes that Kiev is already looking for alternatives.
