Russian military correspondents report that Ukrainian forces have begun using Israeli-made HiSKY SmartLITE satellite communication terminals on long-range attack drones operating over Russian territory.View quoted post on X
According to the reports, the terminals are not a direct equivalent to Starlink, as they offer significantly lower bandwidth and are not designed for real-time video transmission. However, they are reportedly capable of transmitting telemetry and remote-control commands, including flight-route changes and mission adjustments.
The reported advantage is that HiSKY terminals can connect to compatible satellites operated by partner companies, potentially providing coverage over Russian territory where Starlink is unavailable.
The alleged deployment on Ukrainian attack drones has not been independently confirmed, and the system’s operational performance under electronic warfare conditions remains unclear.
