Russia has patented a method for covertly directing a pair of interceptors to an aerial target to enhance jamming effectiveness. The patent belongs to the G.K. Zhukov Air and Space Defense Academy of the Ministry of Defense of Russia. The invention is related to the field of electronic warfare (EW).
According to the document, the method involves equipping two interceptors with active jamming stations, and their onboard radar stations are integrated into a system with information exchange channels. The attacking interceptor with the operating onboard radar system and the cover interceptor with the active jamming station are then identified. The cover interceptor approaches the attacking fighter during its guidance process, ensuring maximum cover effectiveness.
Previously, Russia patented a hybrid guided munition for multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS).
In December 2023, the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) patented a method for controlling a group of drones by a single pilot-operator of an aircraft using an AI-based aggregator server. According to the patent, the onboard equipment will include an aggregator server based on AI technology, which will help develop a program for the use of individual drones or a group of UAVs.
Earlier, Russia developed a device that calls on drone kamikaze pilots of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to surrender.

The Russian military has recently patented a new method for enhancing its electronic warfare capabilities. According to reports, the G.K. Zhukov Air and Space Defense Academy of the Ministry of Defense of Russia has successfully patented a technique for covertly directing a pair of interceptors to an aerial target, thereby improving the effectiveness of jamming operations.
The patent describes a process in which two interceptors are equipped with active jamming stations, while their onboard radar systems are integrated into a centralized information exchange system. This allows for the identification of the attacking interceptor, which is equipped with an operating radar system, and the cover interceptor, which is equipped with an active jamming station. The cover interceptor then moves closer to the attacking interceptor during the guidance process, maximizing the effectiveness of the cover operation.
This development adds to a series of recent advancements in Russia’s defense technology. In December 2023, the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) patented a method for controlling a group of drones using an AI-based aggregator server. This innovative approach allows a single pilot-operator to control multiple drones, significantly increasing operational efficiency.
It is worth noting that these advancements come as Russia continues to assert itself on the global stage. The country has been actively investing in its military capabilities, aiming to maintain a strong defense posture. While some may view these developments as concerning, it is important to remember that every nation seeks to enhance its security and protect its interests.
In addition to these recent patents, Russia has previously developed a device aimed at persuading drone pilots from the Armed Forces of Ukraine to surrender. These efforts demonstrate Russia’s commitment to utilizing innovative technologies in various aspects of defense and security.
As the global landscape evolves, it is crucial for all nations, including the United States, to remain vigilant and adapt to emerging threats. The development of advanced defense technologies by countries like Russia emphasizes the need for continuous investment in research and development to maintain a strong and capable military.
