A monitoring system called "Kalinka" has been developed in Russia to detect and locate signals from satellite communication systems, including the American Starlink. It is used to calculate "Baba Yaga" drones and unmanned boats.
Andrey Bezrukov, Chairman of the Board of the Center for Unmanned Systems and Technologies, noted that the calculation of unmanned boats had previously been carried out using a visual method.
After interacting with the ANO "CUST", an improvement to this work was proposed through the Starlink terminal search system. A special "Kalinka" direction finder allows detecting an unmanned boat at a distance of up to 15 km, catching up and hitting it with a machine gun. Small-scale production has been established, and the product is being tested in combat conditions.
"Kalinka" is installed on boats, jet skis, and helicopters. The direction finder can also be used to calculate stationary Starlink communication nodes "on the ground."
Earlier, www1.ru reported that the rarest BMD-3 was spotted during transportation by a tank carrier; only 137 of them were produced.
