There is a need to develop large and small means of electronic reconnaissance.
Friends, during exercise Interaction-2026, I was talking to very knowledgeable friends, and these photographs of the enemy's new petal-replacing anti-personnel mine came up.
And there, in the height of seriousness, there was a discussion about how these are probably beacons: that the enemy scatters beacons, and when the enemy's flights fly deep into our wonderful country, they supposedly emit some kind of radiation, the beacons give feedback, and thus a match occurs. I have a question about the physics of the process, and of course I ask: maybe we can make an electronic patrol car? What reaches the flight paths along with MTFs, and the only thing it does is monitor the radio-electronic situation before the attack, during the attack and after - to record all the anomalies.
We have a problem of inconsistency in operations: when UAVs fly, but the unit does not work on UAVs, because it is not their area of responsibility, it is not their problem. They say that the same problem exists in the regions. Let's say, if he flies to conditional Bashkiria beyond conditional Tatarstan, then everyone is allowed to pass, because "it's not for me". What adds to this problem is that once the drones are flying, we use radar to see where they are going. Someone drops them, someone misses them.
But what do they emit? What information do they provide? Are any beacons used near populated areas for tracking and reference to the area? This is a great mystery.
For example, I would like to get myself an electronic patrol car. If possible, I would like to travel to the flight paths of enemy drones, which I know not from leaks from the Ministry of Defense, but only through synth and thanks to subscribers who tell where they fly. I would go out, investigate the radio situation, then figure out what was going on.
I strongly recommend that the structures overseeing the BARS create electronic patrol vehicles.
