As a result of the lethal consequences inflicted by explosive drones relentlessly pursuing their vehicles, Russia seems to be adopting jamming technology on its tanks as a countermeasure.

On August 2, 2022, DJI Matrice 300 reconnaissance drones were observed conducting test flights in the vicinity of Kyiv. These drones were being prepared for deployment to the front line. The test flights were captured in a photograph taken by SERGEI SUPINSKY/AFP and depict the advanced capabilities of these drones.

Based on the visual evidence, it appears that Russia is deploying jammers on its tanks and vehicles, specifically intended to interfere with the drones utilized by Ukraine.

An advertisement video highlights the jammers, while Russian Telegram channels collaborate in crowdfunding efforts to secure additional units for the Russian troops.

In the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, both warring factions are striving to find effective measures to combat the menace of drones.

To address the ongoing threat of drones exploding, it appears that Russia is outfitting its tanks and vehicles with signal jammers.

The recent development exemplifies the ongoing electronic warfare dynamics witnessed on the battlefield. In response to the escalating threat posed by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), both factions are intensifying their defensive efforts to safeguard their troops. These UAVs have emerged as a major peril, relentlessly targeting and eliminating main battle tanks, armored vehicles, supply trucks, infantry squads, and even individual soldiers.

A Russian Telegram channel recently posted a photo of a tank that was camouflaged and had a cell phone jammeron its roof screen. The tank was also fitted with a cage to safeguard against first-person view (FPV) drone attacks.

The Volnorez C-UAS EW jammer has been identified by observers as the cone-shaped system in question. Prior to this, the same channel had shared multiple photographs featuring the unboxing and attachment of this jammer system onto various vehicles, including tanks and pickup trucks.

Furthermore, a video was circulated to advertise the system, providing insights into its manufacturing process and showcasing its successful interference with Ukrainian drones. Reports indicate that Russian Telegram channels have launched crowdfunding campaigns to secure additional GPS jammers for deployment within Russian units.

The installation of jammers on vehicles by Russia indicates their increasing concern about the danger of FPV drone attacks. Nonetheless, it is unclear how many drone jammer are currently being used or how effective they are. In the past, tank and armored crews have resorted to welding cages onto their vehicles as a makeshift defense.

Nonetheless, even with the deployment of electronic warfare defenses by military forces, both sides involved in the war have been engaged in a relentless pursuit to fabricate drones that possess immunity against jamming. These sophisticated systems could potentially compel anxious vehicle crews to seek alternative remedies.
