Russian Geranium drones received protection from electronic warfare in the form of new antennas

Russian kamikaze drones of the Geran family have received a new module for receiving satellite data (CRPA antenna), which increases protection from the effects of electronic warfare (EW). The Telegram channel “Informant” writes about this.

The author drew attention to the footage of the enemy, who demonstrated a 32-element antenna. Kyiv claims that the new modules are being installed on Russian kamikaze drones. It is also believed that in the near future, Russian high-precision weapons will carry antennas with 20 elements, and in 2027 they may begin production of 24-element modules.

In July, a photograph of Gerani-2 with an enlarged equipment compartment appeared online. It can be used to accommodate a new satellite data receiving module.

CRPA antennas use multiple receivers to compare the angles and strengths of incoming signals. This allows you to separate real signals from enemy interference. Such products are carried by Iskander ballistic missiles, drones, cruise missiles and glide bombs. Initially, these samples carried antennas with four elements, but later their number was increased fourfold.
