All the infrastructure in most parts of the world relies on satellite navigation (GSS) to some extent, but the Russians do not care what the disruption of this system can cause when it comes to their president, Vladimir Putin.

Russian forces have developed mobile units to jam the global navigation system to provide protection for the country's president.

The Russians began to penetrate the large-scale navigation satellite system to disrupt thousands of ships and aircraft around their whereabouts, according to a C4D study on false signals detected by the global navigation system.

The global navigation system includes a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth. Including GPS in the United States, Chinese Piedu, GLONASS in Russia and Galileo in Europe.

Your telephone, police equipment, cargo carriers, airlines and power plants are all susceptible to piracy and confusion by the Russian government.

The jamming, blocking or impersonation of the Global Navigation System signals by the Russian government is "more indiscriminate, more stable, more extensive, geographically diverse than previously thought," according to the weekly digital intelligence magazine, Digital Security, an online security surveillance service.

According to the C4D study, nearly 10,000 incidents were recorded from ships with erroneous coordinates, 1311 civilian vessels were damaged, and 9,888 accidents were reported.

For the President
C4D believes that Russians often use jamming or deception in the global navigation system to hide the president's place.

These incidents were often close to places where Putin was making foreign and local visits, indicating that Russian forces had developed mobile jamming units to provide protection for the president.

Most of the jamming occurred near places Putin visits both inside and outside Russia (Anatolia)

These incidents are also consistent with the positions of the Russian army, although in some areas the motivation was likely to help or hinder the foreign army.

Ships sailing near Glenezek have been informed of false navigation data on their systems. In June 2017, the captain of the commercial ship Atria provided direct evidence of disruptions off the coast of Glenezk in Russia.

The ship's navigation systems indicated that it was located at the center of Glenezick Airport, about 20 kilometers from another 20 ships that reported similar disturbances in the area that day, according to the study.

Most of the incidents were recorded in the Crimea, the Black Sea, Syria and Russia.

Perhaps most worrisome is that global navigation system deception is available to almost anyone for a few hundred dollars.

In the summer of 2013, a research team at the University of Texas at Austin blundered on navigation systems aboard a huge yacht worth $ 80 million using a small bag-sized device.

The pilot attack forced the ship's navigation systems to transmit false information about the site to the captain.

The cost of the global navigation system's deception has dropped to about $ 300, says C4D and has been used by some people to cheat on Pokemon Go.
