Divnomorye

Divnomorye is a highly secretive Russian ground-based electronic-warfare complex, reported as a strategic successor to Moskva-1 and Krasukha systems with radar- and satellite-jamming roles.

A secretive Russian strategic electronic-warfare complex, reported to combine reconnaissance, command-post and radar-jamming functions against airborne, ground-based and space-linked sensors.

Overview

Divnomorye, most often referenced in later open sources as Divnomorye-U, is a Russian ground-based electronic-warfare system associated with the modernization of Russia's Electronic Warfare Troops. It is described in Russian-sourced reporting as a strategic-level complex intended to absorb functions previously distributed across the Moskva-1, Krasukha-2 and Krasukha-4 families: electronic reconnaissance, command-and-control support, and jamming of radar and other radio-electronic systems.

The system is unusually opaque even by Russian EW standards. Open-source researcher Bart Hendrickx notes in The Space Review that no positively identified public photograph of Divnomorye exists, and that some imagery captioned as Divnomorye actually depicts Krasukha-2. As a result, public descriptions of its vehicle layout, antennas, range and automation should be treated as attributed Russian or secondary-source claims rather than verified specifications.
