There was talk about Russia being able to jam Starlink a few weeks ago. Is that still happening?
The Russians are still able to jam all sorts of communications locally, but the jamming equipment is vulnerable to anti-radiation attack. The video posted yesterday shows how difficult it is for Russian AD systems now. Any time they turn on their radar, in come the attack drones and HARMs. Jamming equipment has the same problem. Turn that on and you are telling anyone with the right sensing equipment exactly where you are.
I suspect that the west has quietly given Ukraine more good quality EM sensors so they can pin point all Russian emitters.
Another thing that is vulnerable to EM sensors is a modern headquarters. Most headquarter have a lot of computers which put off enough EM noise that god sensors can spot them. There was a thread on Twitter by someone a few months back showing the EM footprint of a US Army front line HQ detected from space.
Nothing to see here..just a steel furnace taking a smoke break in russia. move along...nothing to see
That smoke does not look healthy. When a fire is producing nitric acid the smoke is that color. It may be something else. Burning iron filings are rust colored too, but I think iron burns redder than that.
