Invaders have begun using a new technique in Ukraine to place beacons to guide missiles. The previous one was not very successful.
Channel 24 reports on how the Russian invaders did before and what has changed now, with reference to people familiar with these features.
The scheme that worked before
The occupiers have precision gauges. “However, they can be guided by GPS only conditionally,” the interlocutor said.
If you need to strike at a specific place, and the missile needs to cover a long distance, then they use additional means of guidance – beacons.
< p>Earlier, Russia sent people to Ukrainian lands who scattered these beacons. However, the Ukrainian defenders caught them, and the beacons were massively destroyed. There are not very many who want to do this.
A new tactic for placing beacons
Due to the poor performance of the previous tactic, the Russians decided to resort to a new one.
They drop beacons where they need to from UAVs and with the help of other specialized means,” the interlocutor explained.
For civilians, the instructions are as follows: if you see such a beacon, you should fill it with something. It is better not to use fabric. Be sure to report the find to the territorial defense, police, and local authorities.
