But all is not lost. Russia also isn’t adding to this system at all fast pace. The system itself won’t be like Starlink, but perhaps a worse version of that even when they have more satellites in place. They won’t be able run a battlefield management system for another year or two because internet on that scale won’t be available . Also, you would think that Ukrainian intelligence will be able to find the rockets that are meant for the launch and use drones against them.
In the meantime, Russia will cont to incur heavy losses.
