Potential threat from optical navigation

The practice of switching off street lighting on highways may be reintroduced in Ukraine. Such a measure may become necessary to complicate the targeted operation of Iranian "Shahed" unmanned aerial vehicles used by the enemy.

Explanation from the presidential adviser

Presidential adviser Serhiy Beskrestnov raised the initiative regarding a possible return to light masking. According to him, such a measure will be relevant if the opponent begins to mass-apply optical navigation modules.

«Якщо противник почне у великих масштабах застосовувати модуль оптичної навігації «Сусанін» на «Герань-5» та інших БПЛА (ракетах) вночі, нам, можливо, доведеться повернутися до питання світломаскування. У першу чергу це стосується освітлення доріг і ділянок трас» (If the opponent begins to apply the "Susannin" optical navigation module on a large scale to "Geran-5" and other UAVs (missiles) at night, we may have to return to the issue of light masking. This primarily concerns road lighting and sections of highways), Beskrestnov noted.
