Российский аналог Starlink появится лишь через один-два года

Current satellite communication developments provide communication at the level of 10 Mbit/sec

The Russian army will have to wait another one or two years for a domestic analogue of the Starlink satellite Internet. This point of view was expressed by journalist Alexander Kots.

According to him, after this period of time, the soldiers will have their own satellite communications, which will allow them to abandon the American system.

The task was set to create satellite communications either by 2026 or by 2027, and we have developments, 10 megabits are already going. This is low-orbit, of course, not 100 megabits of Starlink, but this is just the beginning.
