🔵🔱 The Marines of Bilinkiv received help in the form of powerful EW systems from the Charity Fund of Natalia Kartasheva "South Coast".

Thanks to Odesa educators, the brigade unit added 2 "Synytsia-8" complexes to its arsenal, and thanks to the donations of caring Ukrainians - 8 "Boombox-5" complexes.

We thank the foundation and all Ukrainians who are involved in fundraising. Your support makes our way to Victory shorter!

Alright, but what is an "EW system"? What is a "Synytsia-8"? And what is a "Boombox-5"?

Electronic Warfare devices that jam drone signals.

typically they transmit noise/distortion at certain frequencies that drones use.

western military drones use more complex frequency hopping and other methods to counter such measures.

Wouldn't using these give away your position immediately? Blasting any kind of radio frequency interference would just draw attention and make locating you much easier, surely?

These will be vehicle mounted.
