“Work is underway to modernize the Pishchal-Pro product pro is planned to add an additional jamming range for satellite navigation systems, to which new UAV models are currently tuned. This will make it possible to counter drones that use additional frequency bands for navigation,” the holding said.
Its weight is about 4 kg, the radius of action is 2 km. It is designed to suppress communication channels, control and navigation of drones.
The product can be used against reconnaissance drones, electronic warfare drones, as well as against drones carrying a combat load.
The Pishchal-Pro countermeasures complex for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will be equipped with an additional suppression range for satellite navigation systems, which will make it possible to counteract the latest models of drones. This was reported to TASS in the press service of the Roselectronics holding (part of Rostec) on the occasion of the Day of the Electronic Warfare Specialist (EW), which is celebrated annually in Russia on April 15.

The Pishchal-Pro portable complex was developed by the Avtomatika concern (part of Ruselectronics), its weight is about 4 kg, and its range is 2 km. It is designed to suppress communication channels, control and navigation of drones. The product can be used against reconnaissance drones, electronic warfare drones, as well as against drones carrying a combat load.
Protection of infrastructure and industrial facilities
As TASS was told at the Rostec state corporation, in the light of the special operation, the topic of countering drones is more relevant than ever. Moreover, the use of effective systems to combat drones is necessary both in the NVO zone and in areas far from the line of contact.
Rostec enterprises are creating a whole range of systems to combat drones, which is constantly expanding, and already tested systems are being upgraded and refined. In particular, the Kupol portable anti-drone system developed by the Avtomatika concern was modernized, which is designed to protect the airspace of critical facilities. “Designers have expanded the number of suppression ranges, which made it possible to block additional satellite navigation frequencies that UAVs can potentially use to perform flight tasks and bind to the terrain,” the concern clarified.
The complex suppresses UAV control and navigation channels at a distance of up to 2 km and is made in the form of quick-mounted units, which allows one person to assemble and disassemble the product by one person within three minutes.
To protect infrastructure or industrial facilities, the Serp-VS portable anti-drone system, created by the Vector Research Institute of the Roselectronics holding, has also proven itself well. A new version of this product – “Serp-VS5” – has recently been tested.
“The complex is capable of suppressing drone control at a distance of up to 5 km. It “extinguishes” GPS, GLONASS, Beidou signals (in the L1, L2, L5 bands), and also breaks drone control over Wi-Fi and “sees” UAV intruders in the sector 360 degrees along the horizontal axis,” Rostec told TASS.
As noted in the state corporation, interest in this product is observed on the part of companies with industrial facilities of various profiles: from manufacturing enterprises to critical infrastructure facilities located in dense urban areas. The Ruselectronics holding reported that the complex is ready for deliveries on the first orders for several enterprises in the fuel and energy complex and the machine-building sector.
EW Specialist Day
The Day of the Specialist in Electronic Warfare is annually celebrated in Russia on April 15 in accordance with the decree of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin of May 31, 2006.
The history of the formation of electronic warfare troops in the Russian army is counted from April 15 (April 2, old style), 1904. On this day, during the Russo-Japanese War, the signalmen of the squadron battleship Pobeda and the naval telegraph station on Zolotoy Gora managed, by putting radio interference, to disrupt the bombardment by the Japanese armored cruisers Nissin and Kasuga of the Russian squadron and the fortress of Port Arthur.
This incident was the first step in world military history from organizing radio intelligence to conducting electronic warfare in combat operations. In the future, electronic warfare equipment was actively improved, and the practice of their use expanded significantly. Tags:
