Ukraine Spoofs Russian Drones, Sending Them Back to Russia and Belarus
Ukraine’s sophisticated electronic warfare capabilities are effectively countering Russia’s drone attacks. By “spoofing” satellite coordinates, Ukrainian forces redirect incoming Shahed drones, causing them to self-destruct over Russian and Belarusian territory. This tactic, used during a recent record-breaking drone assault, complements traditional air defenses and conserves precious resources. The successful diversion of a significant number of drones highlights the growing effectiveness of Ukraine’s electronic warfare systems in disrupting Russian operations.
