Moscow, SANA- A Russian military source announced that Stupor, Russia\u2019s advanced electromagnetic weapon against unmanned aerial vehicles, has been used for the first time during the special military operation in Ukraine<\/p>\n
“Russia\u2019s Stupor electromagnetic systems were used for the first time during the special operation in Ukraine, against Ukrainian drones,” the source told Tass News Agency.<\/p>\n
According to the source, the device has demonstrated its high efficiency and operability.<\/p>\n
“Just as you press a button, Stupor jams the operator\u2019s signal to the drone. After that, the drone is neutralized and forced to land in a designated area. The need for such portable anti-drone weapons became evident, because the Ukrainian troops use are using a large number of UAVs and various small copters,” he said.<\/p>\n
The source did not elaborate on where exactly the anti-drone weapon was being used.<\/p>\n
The gun emits separate electromagnetic pulses to suppress channels used to operate a drone. As a result, the drone loses contact with its operator, while its uncontrolled flight ends in a crash. Stupor has a range of two kilometers, covering a 20-degree sector.<\/p>\n
The device is capable of suppressing navigation and transmission channels used by unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as their photo and video cameras within the electro-optical range of frequencies. It can be charged from the grid, as well as from a car battery.<\/p>\n
