In the old joke about harsh Siberian lumberjacks and a Japanese chainsaw, the former won. Because the chainsaw could not handle the crowbar, it could not. And all day yesterday, for some reason, Yuri Biryukov was remembering this joke...
That is, when an official commission is brought directly to the test.
That is, when 100,500 left-wing "experts" come on occasion.
That is, when "domestic and imported electronic warfare forces and means" are deployed in the area, and then they hint at a trophy complex being deployed.
Representatives of the manufacturer were fussing and nervous. And we, as the party that paid for the complexes, were not without nerves, yes. Three flights. Different scenarios. Different electronic warfare systems. Different levels of action. No limits.
The machines have been working.
Something like a hand-held anti-drone gun, the devices did not notice at all. The video stream dropped for a few seconds and was restored thanks to floating frequency systems. Sometimes the connection with GPS satellites was interrupted, which did not prevent the aircraft from flying according to the scenario, waiting for internal anti-jamming scenarios to work out (to combat signal jamming). There were different things, but the result was that the EW experts recognized the stability of the complex, and we breathed a sigh of relief.
The contract is for 10 complexes, much more than UAH 100,000,000. We paid half of the contract price - Petro Poroshenko paid his part, and we raised the rest. Five of the ten systems are already in Ukraine.
And now... oh and ah....
