## Russia deploys trailer jammers
Russia is rolling out trailer-mounted jammers designed to prevent Ukraine's attack drones from connecting to SpaceX's Starlink satellites, according to Serhii Beskrestnov, a Ukrainian presidential advisor on drones.
## Coverage and capability
Each jammer can provide point defense covering about twenty-five square kilometres, or about nine point six square miles.
## How Russia conceals the systems
Beskrestnov advised Ukrainian drone pilots to look out for truck or trailer parking lots as an ideal place for Russia to conceal its jammers.Of dozens of trucks, three to six may have the system installed.

## The Volna Kupol Garant system
The jammer is the Volna Kupol Garant, which targets satellites using dish antennas to beam powerful radio interference at individual low-Earth-orbit satellites.
## Limited reach against vast constellation
Analysts believe one jamming system can target only a single low Earth orbit satellite at a time.
## Key takeaway

Russia is deploying trailer-mounted jammers across front lines and Crimea to block Ukraine's Starlink-based drone operations, according to a Ukrainian presidential advisor.
