Rostec unveils Chistulya electronic warfare system for drones

Rostec has introduced a new portable electronic warfare system named ‘Chistulya’, designed to counter unmanned aerial vehicles. The device weighs approximately 10 kilograms and is housed in a compact briefcase.

The system functions by blocking data transmission and control channels, as well as satellite navigation for drones. A key feature of the ‘Chistulya’ is the ability to be remotely activated from a position of cover, which is intended to increase operator safety.

The technology is currently being tested by special and assault units within the zone of the special military operation to reduce drone threats while maintaining crew mobility and response speed.
