Russian jamming targets ships and aircraft in the Baltic Sea, Danish intelligence confirms to The Insider The recent damage of a Russian rescue ship by Ukraine has served as a reminder that Moscow can use these vessels to disrupt signals in other areas.

The oligarchs got a good deal on TikTok in exchange for this

Likely location of Ust-Luga Jammer based on good/bad analysis. Located in southern part of bay, slightly south of harbour area

Is that landing gear?

When going over satellite imagery of Kaliningrad (that one do) it is apparent, Kaliningrad is more or less one giant military base. It is extremely militarized

Another LNG plant in the region is Vysotsk, in the Vyborg archipelago

NASA FIRMS shows fire at Bolshoy Bor (Portovaya LNG) since Sep 8. The terminal is located at discontinued Nordstream and is instead exporting LNG, however under blockade so functioning as shipping for example to Kaliningrad

Bolshoy Bor (Portovaya LNG) is used for shipping to Kaliningrad. It would be awfully cold in Kaliningrad if they do not get their gas

I have never been this close to catch the damn thing

Oh, and the number of reported satellites at Narva-Jõesuu reference station are down again

A thread on my study of the Narva-Jõesuu RINEX station gps data in jammed conditions during the night of August 23–24 This is the night of the Ukrainian drone strikes against the Ust-Luga oil terminal in Leningrad district. I guess Russia placed its jammers on max during a full air-raid alert

Robot 15 has land target mode. Just saying

Nice shot of antennas at around 0:23-0:25 to compare with ALEXANDER FROLOV

Det finns ingen tid att vänta, det är dags att implementera det massivt distribuerade luftförsvaret på djupet. Kombinationer av lång och korträckviddigt luftvärn, robot och eldrör, överallt, alltid

Inser att det är väldigt svår dynamik i interception, men drönare av dessa slag måste man väl kunna flyga ikapp och bekämpa med automatkanon?

FOMO

With only 4 out of 19 taken down it looks like it is WE that will need help from Ukraine in arial defense, not the other way around

Ukrainian foreign minister on fascist Russian drone incursions into Poland:

I’m pretty sure Ukraine is OK with Poland and the air policing to take some extra turns over western Ukraine to clean up a buffer zone in the airspace

Rumors on Crimea now

My take here on what is going on is that this is a ”provocative” SIGINT mission, having NATO to start as many sensors as possible to be able to study (not at all uncommon). Maybe they then also ran a ”one ping only” jam to study how these new drones behave, if they are sensitive to gps attacks

On Aug 23, 20:25 UTC, ALEXANDER FROLOV (mmsi 273542930) made a tell tale teleportation jump, circled by various vessels

More SEAD. I think we soon could expect big things in the SE direction

Me carefully observing my post in a skeptic position about carefully observing a skeptic position

mer SEAD

SEAD

Fregatter till Sverige? Det vore något nytt

we have seen trends of an SEAD campaign the last weeks, it is only a premonition of what comes next 🦩

Swedish National Broadcaster, a slight shift in bureaucratic vagueness disruptions to satellite navigation have increased from about once a week to an average of three times a day this year indications that they are being transmitted from Russian territory www.sverigesradio.se/artikel/kraf...

I bet someone did a decent PB, running the circle at 25 m/s

Strava heatmaps for our usual suspects. Taran, Povarovka, Veselovka, Rybachii. This shows an android gnss logger would likely be able to capture the spoofers

Woohoo, förbekämpning i dagarna, och så detta

and I am pretty sure Russia is desperate for counter measures during the recent successful Ukrainian long long-range engagement campaign

One crazy speculation I have, explaining why we see a little less Kaliningrad jamming activity the recent weeks (besides that ducting season is coming to an end) is that they have shipped them out to mainland Russia. Maybe they even manufacture some on Kaliningrad, test run them and ship

Now he is just trolling

I think this is the important takeaway from the von der Leyen story, Europe pushes back in the information warfare arena

Ceci n'est pas une RED LINE

There may be something hiding in the data still. If my eyes do not deceive me, there are two overlaying pseudorange series reported per satellite. This is unique for Gdansk

Back to planning a field trip to Gdansk I guess. Or Narva perhaps

I guess this is as good evidence, as any, that you can make spoof resistant receivers. No single spoofed signal registered

I am on a Don Quijote style quest to try to reverse engineer the spoofing signals sent by the assumed ZHITEL/POLE-21 gnss jam systems active in Kaliningrad over summer. Indicated here (and by post by @pa.nton.cx ) we have a massive event in SE Baltic Sea on June 14

Det här är nog vad som kan beskrivas som en jävligt bra dag på jobbet

Stemme avgitt 👍🇳🇴

Considering doing a “weather map” for 1.5GHz transmission. “Forecast for 196dB tropospheric scatter reaching Gotland is high with high risk of atmospheric ducting. Keep an eye on the compass and stay safe while navigating”

Excellent blog post, nicely describes Kaliningrad spoofing events, very uncommon we see as far reach as Kategatt (even over land). I still believe this can be over-the-horizon effects, I know for a fact this happens in the Baltic Sea especially during summer. A thread to try to quantify:
