DIU drones hit the Valdai radar in Crimea
First, the scouts tracked down a valuable radar station camouflaged by the Russians at the Dzhankoy airfield, and then they struck.
The demilitarization of Crimea continues! — the press service of the DIU reported and added a video of the destruction of the occupiers' radar station.
The Valdai radar system is considered the newest Russian complex, which contains a radio interference module capable of suppressing (jamming) control, navigation, or communication signals of drones.
Therefore, the Russian Federation uses the Valdai radar to detect and combat drones, especially small-sized UAVs.
The detection radius of small drones with this radar is from 5 to 6 km. For larger drones, it is over 15 km.
The Valdai radar is not yet widespread — it is still undergoing testing and is referred to as "one of the first models in its class."
