The Russia-Ukraine war took longer than anyone expected. Moreover, as long as the parties do not agree on the table, it does not seem like it will end anytime soon. Because both the Russian troops, which re-attacked by renewing the logistical support line, and the Ukrainian troops, which are waiting for billions of dollars of military support packages from the USA and the EU, including a large amount of Turkish Defense Industry products, are not willing to give up. Today, at the request of the Ukrainian side, Starlink satellite internet service, which Elon Musk did not refuse, came to the fore.
Ukraine wanted billion-dollar Turkish Defense Industry products from the USA and the EU!
Ukraine, which officially requested military equipment support from the USA and the EU, demanded hundreds of millions of dollars of Turkish Defense Industry products.
Jamming attack from Russia to local Ukraine and Starlink satellite internet service!
Jamming attacks, which means that the radio broadcast is disrupted by sending fake signals, have been used by armies with advanced technology for a long time. Today, it is generally used to disrupt radar data and communication lines of jet aircraft and other enemy elements.
However, according to the statement made by Pentagon officials, Russia is directly attacking Starlink satellite internet service of Elon Musk’s SpaceX company, which has been used by Ukraine for a month. It also regularly attempts to hack into local connections.
According to the statement made by Dave Tremper, the electronic warfare director of the Secretary of Defense Office, at the C4ISRNET conference, Starlink responds to the attacks it is exposed to in Ukraine much faster than the US army and repels it.
Thanks to this upright posture shown by Starlink, all Ukrainians can securely access the internet. In fact, this is one of the most important factors that prevent life from stopping at some point.
SpaceX CEO Musk started sending Starlink kits to the country with the help of Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov towards the end of February. The second and third shipments took place after it became operational in a short time.
As far as we can see, at the moment, it not only secures the communication of the whole country, both internally and externally, but also undertakes it to a large extent. It is also known that Starlink sends aid kits to regions that have lost internet access due to storms and accidents throughout the year.
