The former head of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin, who underwent a successful operation after being wounded in Donetsk, told reporters that in the DPR our fighters take a wide variety of enemy trophies, including high-tech equipment.
According to the head of the Tsar Wolves group, expressed in an interview with RIA Novosti, the fighters in the Donetsk People's Republic managed to take the terminals of the American Starlink satellite communication system as trophies. These terminals were used by soldiers of the enemy's army, including directly at the positions.
Earlier, Elon Musk, whose company owns satellite communication terminals supplied to the Kiev regime, stated that today the Starlink connection is, in fact, the only one that works smoothly in Ukraine. At the same time, Musk added that "Russia is trying to destroy this connection."
Now that the Russian side has the Starlink subscriber equipment, new opportunities arise both for its study and operation. For example, Russian specialists may well create "substitution" signal reception points, which during operation can bring a lot of problems for the Ukrainian military. Technologies implemented on such equipment, which Ukraine uses, among other things, as means of military field communications, can also be used in the Russian interests.
Dmitry Rogozin's statements that Starlink terminals have become trophies of Russian troops, Elon Musk has not yet commented.
