A Ukrainian air reconnaissance specialist says that his military has been operating drones specially fitted with thermal cameras that can detect Russian vehicles at night.
Starlink satellites sent into space by Elon Musk’s SpaceX are helping Ukrainian military drones destroy Russian tanks and army trucks, according to a report.
A Ukrainian air reconnaissance specialist says that his military has been operating drones specially fitted with thermal cameras that can detect Russian vehicles at night,“If we use a drone with thermal vision at night, the drone must connect through Starlink to the artillery guy and create target acquisition,” the Ukrainian specialist told The Times of London.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has resulted in widespread power outages — thus requiring anyone who wants to connect to the internet to use Starlink. Last month, Musk sent Starlink terminals into Ukraine at the request of Ukraine Vice Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, who has said the broadband internet service “keeps our cities connected and emergency services saving lives” in the event of outages.
