In Russia, state tests of the missile attack warning system (SPRN) have been completed. Sergei Boyev, the general designer of the early warning system and the general director of the interstate joint-stock corporation Vympel, announced this on the Zvezda TV channel.
“At the end of December 2020, we have already successfully completed state tests of the early warning system in general and the command post in particular,” he said.
According to Boev, the main task that was solved was the processing of information and its transmission to the higher command posts using new technologies and high-performance computing facilities.
According to the TV channel, further work on the development of the early warning system will be directed to the creation of a continuous dual-band radar field.
Earlier, Boev said that the constellation of 12 thousand satellites launched by Elon Musk’s Starlink could be used for military purposes, and saw this as a threat to Russia.
