Russia debuts anti-Starlink EW system that can blind terminals by overloading 'satellites' receiving antennas'.


Russia has unveiled a new electronic warfare system designed to disrupt Starlink communications by interfering directly with satellites instead of attacking ground terminals.

The system, dubbed Volna Kupol Garant, directs concentrated radio signals toward Starlink satellites, preventing them from receiving transmissions from users within its operating area.

Russian officials say the approach temporarily interrupts communications without physically damaging spacecraft.

Volna Kupol Garant reportedly relies on a narrow-beam high-frequency radio signal that differs from conventional electronic warfare systems.

According to Russian officials, the transmission overloads receiving antennas aboard Starlink satellites, temporarily preventing them from detecting signals transmitted from terminals beneath the affected coverage area.
