Russia has launched more than 30 Rasbet satellites to create its own satellite internet.
The deployment of the Russian Rasbet satellite group is on schedule. According to the head of the office for digital development, Maxut Shadev, two launches have already been carried out, during which more than 30 devices were put into orbit.
The first phase of the group's establishment is planned to be completed by 2028. According to the minister, the project is technologically complex, but the confidence in meeting the deadlines is increasing.
They plan to use satellite internet on long-distance trains, airplanes and in remote communities where there is no stable connection.
In addition, the technology can become a cheaper alternative to laying optical fibers. Now building communication lines in hard-to-reach areas costs 5-7 billion rubles, Shadayev noted.
