CTRL+SKY system. Archival photoMOSCOW, September 30The Ukrainian army received a system to counter drones SKY CTRL, reports UNN on Friday, citing the CEO of Parimatch Ukraine Natalya Gilevich.
"SKY installation CTRL detects any flying objects within a radius of 10 kilometers, jams and knocks drones off course. The anti-drone system has already been handed over to the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine", — Gilevich quotes the publication.
She said that the system reacts to drones at night, jamming and knocking drones weighing 20-30 kilograms off course. Gilevich noted that the idea of acquiring a new anti-drone system for Ukraine belongs to the Ukrainian IT community. The purchase and transportation of high-tech equipment to Ukraine, according to her, was supported by charitable foundations. In particular, certification and permits for the export of devices have been issued. Russia previously sent a note to NATO countries due to the supply of weapons to Kyiv. The Russian Foreign Ministry said that the members of the alliance were «playing with fire» by supplying weapons to Ukraine. Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov noted that pumping Ukraine with weapons from the West does not contribute to the success of Russian-Ukrainian negotiations and will have a negative effect. >Patrushev spoke about the risks of the spread of weapons from Ukraine
