Secretary of the National Security and Defense
of Ukraine Oleksandr Turchynov visited the "Radiovymirywatch" State
Enterprise of the "Ukroboronprom" concern, where he conducted the
intersectoral meeting on the issues of electronic intelligence and electronic
warfare support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Heads of the Ministry of
Defense of Ukraine, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the
Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine and the
military-industrial complex also participated in the meeting.
According to Mr. Turchynov, the Russian
Federation in the occupied territories is actively using powerful electronic
intelligence and electronic warfare systems against Ukraine. "In combat
conditions, they are trying out and testing their new developments", - he
underlined.
"Therefore, - Secretary of the NSDC
of Ukraine noted, - providing the Armed Forces, the Chief Directorate of
Intelligence and other military formations with modern radio-electronic tools
will allow to effectively counter the Russian military aggression".
At the same time, Oleksandr Turchynov
acknowledged that nowadays "the tasks of electronic defense of the troops
and facilities from destruction by the enemy's systems of precision weapons are
solved inefficiently". "The same applies to the protection of
electronic means of control of the Armed Forces from the enemy's new
developments", - he pointed out, adding that the conduct of effective
military operations in modern conditions is impossible without wide application
of the electronic intelligence devices and intense electronic countermeasures.
"The presence in the Armed Forces of such
modern electronic intelligence and electronic warfare means will allow to
unmask the intentions of the enemy in due time, to suppress its electronic communication
and control means, to block the use of UAVs, to make quick decisions in
difficult conditions of conducting the modern battle and to achieve
victory", - Mr. Turchynov said.
During the meeting, Secretary of the NSDC of
Ukraine stressed that one of the priority tasks is to resume in a very short
time the production on the PJSC "Topaz", evacuated from Donetsk to
Zaporizhzhia region, of the modern long-range electronic intelligence complexes
"Kolchuga KE" as well as the production on Kiev enterprises of the
universal stations of electronic and target environment control of new
generation developed by the "Quantum- radiolocation" Research
Institute.
"Our designers, scientists and
manufacturers face the challenge to ensure the creation of a broad range of
modern radio-electronic systems both at the enterprises of the
"Ukroboronprom" concern and in the private sector", - Mr.
Turchynov noticed, stating that this priority should be reflected in the new
State defense order.
"In
Ukraine, there is a scientific and industrial potential, which should be used
in the most efficient way to achieve the tasks set. Certainly, to speed up the
adjustment of the production of modern electronic intelligence and electronic
warfare means we must break the resistance to military-technical cooperation
and cooperation with the leading world manufacturers of the respective
products", - he summarized.
