Russia Begins Serial Production of Starlink Jamming System 'Volna Kupoł Garant'

According to Rzeczpospolita, Russia has begun mass production of the Volna Kupoł Garant system, which is intended to jam Starlink satellites used by Ukrainian Armed Forces for battlefield communications. The system is part of a broader effort by the Russian defense industry to undermine Western technological advantages on the battlefield. TASS and a Russian defense industry representative confirmed that the 'Wave Dome Grant' RЭB complexes were launched into serial production after demonstrating effectiveness in field tests. Lenta reported that a RЭB complex for jamming Starlink has been established in Russia, though the article lacks specific details. Anna provided additional context, stating that the 'Wave Dome Grant' RЭB complexes were developed through a series of improvements and were deployed after proving their effectiveness. The system is designed to counter the Starlink satellite communication network, which has been critical for Ukrainian forces in maintaining coordination and command during the conflict. The naming of the system differs between sources: Rzeczpospolita refers to it as 'Volna Kupoł Garant,' while Anna and TASS use the term 'Wave Dome Grant.' Despite these naming differences, all sources agree that the system is a direct response to the use of Starlink satellites by Ukrainian forces.
