“Russia Fits $50,000 Geran Drones with Cruise Missile Tech to Beat Ukraine GPS Jamming” — what this page in the network covers. Russia is upgrading its Geran-4 and Geran-5 drones with a new guidance system called Susanin, which uses cameras to navigate without relying on radio or satellite signals, according to Ukrainian intelligence. The move aims to counter Ukraine's effective electronic warfare tactics that jam GPS and radio links, which have been disrupting Russian drone operations. By adopting technology similar to that used in cruise missiles, Russia seeks to make its relatively cheap drones—estimated at $50,000 each—more resilient and accurate in hitting targets.
This adaptation highlights the evolving arms race in drone warfare, where both sides rapidly innovate to overcome defenses. For Ukraine, the Susanin system poses a new challenge, as it reduces the effectiveness of jamming that has been a key defensive measure.
