The Ukrainian company "Aura-Ukraine" is conducting final tests of the compact electronic warfare device Aura 3K mini, which is supposed to protect heavy bomber drones from enemy FPV. The device weighs about 2.4 kg and, according to the developers, should not interfere with the platform's communication via Starlink.
The Ukrainian company "Aura-Ukraine" is conducting final tests of the compact electronic warfare device Aura 3K mini, which is supposed to protect heavy bomber drones from enemy FPV. The device weighs about 2.4 kg and, according to the developers, should not interfere with the platform's communication via Starlink.
"Oborontsi" told about this at the Dignitas Fund charity foundation, which is working on the system together with the manufacturer.
The Aura 3K mini uses two broadband jammers and is designed to provide 360° protection. They operate in the 2.1 to 2.8 GHz range and are designed to jam enemy FPV drone communication channels.
In the coming days, the system is planned to be tested directly on the front line. There, they will check how exactly the electronic warfare creates interference around bombers and anti-aircraft missiles. If the final tests are successful, the Aura 3K mini is planned to be launched into mass production.
If the tests are successful, the next stage will be partial automation of the system's operation. The company plans to teach the electronic warfare system to turn on automatically only after a threat is detected. This is necessary so that the device does not emit a signal constantly and thus does not unmask the drone.
