| Russia jams British satellites - as head of UK Space Command warns Putin's star wars tech is carrying out weekly attacks |
| 2025-10-04 |
| Major General Paul Tedman said Russian forces are actively trying to disrupt UK-based military activities 'weekly' and are closely monitoring the country's space assets. 'We're seeing our satellites being jammed by the Russians on a reasonably persistent basis,' he told the BBC. The UK operates approximately six dedicated military satellites for communications and surveillance, which Major General Tedman said were equipped with counter-jamming technology. He added: 'They've got payloads on board that can see our satellites and are trying to collect information from them.' It comes after Munich Airport was forced to close overnight when multiple drones were spotted near the runways, grounding 17 departures, diverting 15 incoming flights and affecting nearly 3,000 passengers, before operations resumed early the next morning. |
