The software enables russian drone operators:
- to customize remote controllers and create new ones;
- to capture video as well as pass image to the command point;
- to control the drone via computer (without using the remote control).
Through web servers, this russian drone reflashing project ensures functioning of the friend-or-foe system.
According to preliminary information, as a result of Ukrainian cyberattack, the servers stopped working, so all software is recognized as "foe" as well as denies access to russians.
Without access to the servers and system, it is probably impossible to control drones remotely.
According to the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, now russian occupiers are trying to solve the problem in every possible way, including switching to manual control.
Earlier, Ukrainian intelligence has repeatedly conducted cyberattacks against russian terrorists. One such attacks on the Center for Space Hydrometeorology was so powerful that russians felt the consequences even at their station on Bolshevik Island in the Arctic.
Defense Express reported that the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine had attacked russian information systems company.
