Russian developers have unveiled a new electronic warfare system designed to jam Starlink satellite communications, naming it 'Grant's Dome'. The system reportedly uses an array of satellite antennas to target eight communication channels at 62.5 MHz each, emitting powerful interference directed at a specific Starlink satellite to disrupt its link with ground terminals.
Russian developers have named a new Starlink satellite jammer 'Grant's Dome', according to reports. The system reportedly comprises an array of satellite antennas targeting eight communication channels at a bandwidth of 62.5 MHz each. It emits powerful interference directed at a specific Starlink satellite, disrupting its link with ground terminals. No further technical details or deployment information have been released. The system appears to be in development or early deployment stages, and independent verification of its capabilities is not yet available. The designation 'Grant's Dome' may reference Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th US president and Union general, though this is unconfirmed.
