Ukrainian advisor says Russia plans satellite-free navigation for Shaheds and guided bombs
Serhiy Beskrestnov, an advisor to the president of Ukraine on defense technology, says Russia plans to install a beacon-based navigation system called Ariadna on Shahed drones and guided aerial bombs. He says the system would allow the weapons to orient themselves up to 100 km into Ukrainian territory without satellite signals, making them resistant to electronic jamming.
