Russian Starlink Jammer Causes Irreversible Damage to Satellites

Starlink satellites reportedly jammed by Russian military systems while supporting Ukrainian operations have sustained irreversible damage, according to the Telegram channel Military Chronicle, citing conclusions reached by foreign researchers. "The first and most important conclusion is that electronic components aboard spacecraft whose orbital trajectories pass through zones of active jamming will eventually sustain irreversible damage," Military Chronicle stated. Researchers also examined the effective coverage area of Russia's Volna-Kupol-Garant anti-satellite electronic warfare system. According to the report, the system's area of influence is steadily expanding.
