Russian Troops Utilize Backpack Drone-Jammers and Unleash Army of Robots in Ukraine's Electronic Warfare

TL;DR Summary
Russian troops are adopting a new tactic of strapping backpack radio-jammers to their vehicles before launching attacks. This strategy, learned from Ukrainian forces, aims to create a dead zone for Russian drones and establish local air superiority. While the effectiveness of these jammers is not always evident, it shows that the Russians are actively trying to counter Ukrainian drone surveillance. The use of backpack-jammers is a temporary solution until purpose-made vehicle-mounted jammers can be produced in larger quantities. However, developers are also working on jam-proof drones to counter these jamming attempts.
