Unmanned surface vessels (USV) controlled via Starlink satellite communication, pose a real threat to the fleet. Considering this, specialists from the Vector Research Institute (part of the Roselectronica holding) have developed the ChVA-001-04RP-E long-range radio monitoring system. The system, capable of detecting kamikaze boats at a great distance, has become the very "antidote" to USVs, according to Eurasian Times.
Unmanned boats can cause serious damage to warships. USVs, which are often difficult to detect, have required innovative countermeasures.
Eurasian Times writes that the development of the Vector Research Institute is a complex long-range radio monitoring system designed to detect virtually elusive targets.
ChVA-001-04RP-E surpasses foreign analogues in a wider frequency range, lower requirements for the placement of antenna devices, improved weight and size characteristics, and significantly lower cost.
The timing of the complex's implementation on ships of the Russian Navy is not disclosed.
