2024: Development of the "SYeRP-VS6D" version

On August 7, 2024, it became known that Russian enterprises began to use the new SERP-VS6D automated drone suppression system developed by the Roselectronics holding of the Rostec state corporation. This innovative system is able to effectively combat FPV drones within a radius of up to 5 kilometers, providing reliable protection for objects.

According to Rostec, the new SYeRP-VS6D system combines an electronic warfare (EW) complex and a high-precision detector. This makes it possible to detect and suppress both single and group attacks of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). During the tests, the system demonstrated high efficiency in detecting and neutralizing drones at various frequencies.

Developed by engineers of the Vector Research Institute of the Roselectronics holding, the SYeRP-VS6D system works through six different communication channels, which significantly expands its functionality. High-precision detector and algorithms for instant digital signal processing minimize false positives and missed targets, providing reliable protection of the protected area.

The equipment of the system is able to continuously track the communication and control channels of drones in the 360 ​ ​ degree sector horizontally. When the target is detected, the device activates the radio signal suppression system automatically or in manual mode. At the time of activation, suppression is carried out in all available ranges, which guarantees reliable protection at a distance of up to 5 km. The rest of the time, the suppression function remains turned off, which meets the requirements of the State Commission on Radio Frequencies, which prohibits the constant use of the jammer.

Serp-VS5D Test Completion

Research Institute "Vector" Holding Roselectronics"" (part of the State Corporation Rostec"") completed tests of the modernized antidron complex "Serp-VS5D" at one of the power infrastructure facilities. Russia The system combines in one device the functions of electronic detection and counteraction of small unmanned aerial vehicles (). UAV The equipment can work against both a single target and a swarm. drones This was announced by Roselectronics on December 27, 2023.

This development can detect and suppress violating UAVs. The system continuously searches and detects channels communications and controls drones. If detected, the detector sends a command to enable suppression in the appropriate frequency bands.

The digital processing algorithms of the detection system allow you to confidently determine the presence of drones in the protected area, minimizing the likelihood of missing or false triggering. The UAV is suppressed in automatic mode at a range of up to 5 km at line of sight.

The line of anti-drone devices "Sickle," produced by the Research Institute "Vector," "sees" UAV-violators in the 360 ​ ​ degree sector in the horizontal plane. The equipment is characterized by the ability to operate in 90-degree sectors with independent operating modes. This allows, if necessary, to use other drones during the operation of the complex, for example, to monitor power transmission networks or pipelines.

Release of the version "Sickle-BC6," which suppresses FPV drones

Specialists of the Research Institute "Vector" (part of the holding "Roselectronics" Rostec) have developed a new improved version of the device for combating drones - "Sickle-VS6." The complex is already ready for supply, the Roselectronics holding (part of the Rostec state corporation) said in mid-June 2023.

As noted by Andrei Sorokin, director of business development at the Vector Research Institute (developer and manufacturer of Serp complexes, part of Roselectronics), the Serp-VS6 model is capable of suppressing, among other things, FPV drones (first-person view, "first-person view") operating in the 400 MHz range.

Deliveries of complexes suppressing FPV drones at a distance of 5 km begin in Russia

The complex is designed to suppress the control channels of an unmanned aerial vehicle and disrupts the operation of the on-board signal receiver of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). As a result of the system operation, the UAV operator loses the ability to control the flight, and the UAV itself does not receive information about its position in space and cannot perform the flight mission autonomously. Operating modes in each of the 4 azimuth sectors are set independently of each other. According to the developers, a compact design that allows you to quickly install the module. The device operates in passive mode, there is no active radiation.

Earlier, Roselectronics at the training ground demonstrated the work of the Serp-VS5 drone countermeasures device. The complex is capable of suppressing drones at a distance of up to 5 km, operates at 360 degrees in five frequency bands from 900 MHz to 5.8 GHz and allows you to jam several communication channels at the same time. This ensures that objects are protected from attacks by several drones at the same time, including those flying from different directions.[2]

Announcement of "Sickle-VS5" to combat swarm of drones

On March 16, 2023, Rostec announced the creation of an anti-drone complex capable of suppressing drone control at a distance of up to 5 km. The system called "Sickle-VS5" was developed by the Research Institute "Vector" of the holding "Roselectronics," which, in turn, is part of the state corporation "Rostec."

According to the press service of Rostec, Serp-VS5 operates in five frequency bands - from 900 MHz to 5.8 GHz. This allows it to be used not only against civilians, but also against special aircraft.

Complex "Serp-BS5"

The equipment suppresses the drone control channel, breaks communication with the operator, disables navigation equipment, disorients the drone in space and disrupts the flight mission. The system suppresses GPS, GLONASS, Beidou signals (in the L1, L2, L5 ranges), and also breaks the control of drones over Wi-Fi.

The complex "sees" UAV-violators in the 360 ​ ​ degree sector along the horizontal axis. The function of dividing the viewing angle into sectors with independent operating modes allows you to use, if necessary, other drones during the operation of the complex, for example, to monitor power transmission networks or pipelines. Communication with your own control point is carried out over the Ethernet network. The equipment allows you to "jam" several channels at the same time, which protects objects from attacks by several UAVs at the same time, including those flying from different sides.

Oil companies in Russia began to defend new drone suppression systems

Oil companies in Russia have begun to defend the new Sickle-Sun drone suppression systems. This was reported on February 10, 2023 in the state corporation "Rostec." They noted that the devices installed on the industrial territory of the oil company made it possible to exclude the appearance of violating drones in the protected zone. "Sickle-VS" can work autonomously at a remote position and protect both mobile and stationary objects.

Sickle-VS, developed by the Vector Research Institute of the Roselektronika holding (part of Rostec.), Is able to suppress the communication, control and navigation channels of the drone. The system allows you to influence both the signals of global navigation satellite systems - GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou - and the UAV control signals in the 2.4 and 5.6 GHz bands used in Wi-Fi networks.

Sickle-Sun (drone suppression system)

"Sickle-VS" can suppress drones 360 ° along the horizontal axis. Vertically, the device acts on an intruder UAV in a sector from -10 ° to 80 °. The possibility of controlled sectoral suppression is also provided. Operating modes in each of the 4 azimuth sectors are set independently of each other. The power consumption of the device is no more than 150 W, and the range is up to 3 km. Communication with your own control point is carried out over the Ethernet network.

According to Andrei Sorokin, director of business development at the Vector Research Institute, following the results of two months of operation at the facilities of one of the fuel and energy complex enterprises, the Sickle-VS devices fully confirmed the declared characteristics, allowing them to level the risks of third-party UAVs appearing in the perimeter of the protected area. He noted intuitive control in the devices, which did not cause difficulties for the personnel operating them. A number of industrial companies showed interest in the product; by February 10, 2023, negotiations are underway on the supply of complexes, Sorokin added.[4]
