一位武器专家向Fox News Digital透露，俄罗斯可能正在乌克兰城市内隐藏信号中继器，以帮助其远程无人机规避防空系统并实现更精准的打击。
Russia may be concealing signal repeaters inside Ukrainian cities to help its long-range drones evade air defenses and strike with greater precision, a weapons expert told Fox News Digital.
《基辅邮报》首次报道了这些小型地面设备（即中继器）的可能用途。Draganfly公司首席执行官兼联合创始人卡梅伦·切尔表示，这些设备构成了一个不断扩大的“网状”网络的一部分，该网络允许俄罗斯无人机跨越多个连接中继加密信号，使得无人机和无人机蜂群更难被乌克兰通过标准电子干扰手段破坏和击落。
The Kyiv Post first reported the possible use of the small ground devices, or repeaters, which Draganfly CEO and co-founder Cameron Chell said form part of an expanding "mesh" network that allows Russian drones to relay encrypted signals across multiple connections, making drones and drone swarms far harder for Ukraine to disrupt and bring down through standard electronic jamming.
切尔的警告正值该地区外交通告升级之际，莫斯科于10月3日敦促外国公民和大使馆工作人员立即撤离首都基辅，强调存在“致命危险”，因为俄罗斯军队威胁将实施进一步的“大规模报复性打击”。切尔表示：“俄罗斯已意识到创新将不得不赢得这场战争，以至于他们正在成为这场战争中的创新领导者——不仅在战术、战略和技术方面，而且整个思维模式都在发生转变。”
Chell’s warning also came amid escalating diplomatic notices for the region, with Moscow urging foreign nationals and embassy staff to leave the capital Kyiv immediately on Oct. 3, highlighting "mortal danger" as Russian forces threatened further "massive retaliatory strikes." "Russia has come to the realization that innovation is going to have to win this war, to the point now where they are becoming the innovative leader in this war—not just in terms of tactics, strategy, and technology, but the entire mindset is shifting," Chell said.
俄罗斯准备新型500英里导弹，武器专家警告“终局惊喜” 切尔解释说，网状网络允许无人机和战略性部署的地面中继器跨越多个连接中继加密信号，使得许多俄罗斯无人机飞行更难被干扰。
RUSSIA READIES NEW 500-MILE MISSILE AS WEAPON EXPERT WARNS OF 'TERMINAL END GAME SURPRISES' Mesh networks, Chell explained, allow drones and strategically placed ground-based repeaters to relay encrypted signals across multiple connections, making many Russian drone flights harder to disrupt.
“网状网络的使用现在使得防御方越来越难以有效击落俄罗斯无人机。”
"The use of mesh networking is now making it increasingly hard for a defensive position to bring down Russian drones in an effective manner."
切尔警告说：“凭借实时精度，俄罗斯现在还能将无人机设备送入特定窗户。”
"With real-time precision, Russia can also now take their drone device into a particular window," Chell warned.
他补充道：“你可以将设备送至桥梁的特定部位，因为你可以实时做出最后一刻的现场决策，因为你拥有所有这些额外的网络连接，它们不仅增加了你的带宽，还增强了你在抗干扰方面的韧性。”
"You can take the device onto a particular portion of a bridge because you can make that real-time, last-minute decision live because you've got all these additional network connections that increase not just your bandwidth, but also your resilience in terms of being jammed," he added.
维特科夫和库什纳访问基辅后，俄罗斯袭击持续不断 莫斯科在战场上的快速技术演变伴随着对基辅关键基础设施异常精准的打击，包括主要河流渡口。
RUSSIAN STRIKES CONTINUE FOLLOWING VISIT BY WITKOFF AND KUSHNER TO KYIV Moscow's rapid technological evolution on the battlefield comes alongside unusually precise strikes on critical infrastructure in Kyiv, including major river crossings.
乌克兰空军发言人尤里·伊格纳特于9月29日证实，俄罗斯部队正在将网状网络技术集成到其无人机编队中，同时升级机载光学设备。
Ukrainian Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat confirmed Sept. 29 that Russian forces are integrating mesh networking into their drone fleet while upgrading onboard optics.
据《乌克兰真理报》报道，伊格纳特表示：“敌人在其无人机中使用高质量材料并提高摄像头分辨率，使敌人能够详细观察地面态势，并将这些无人机用于各种目标。网状网络的使用确实存在。当然，这相当危险。”
"The enemy is using high-quality materials in its UAVs and increasing camera resolution, allowing the enemy to view the situation on the ground in detail and use these UAVs for various targets. And the use of mesh networks is indeed present. Of course, this is quite dangerous," Ihnat said, according to Ukrainska Pravda.
切尔说：“它们利用网状网络原理来对抗乌克兰采取的反无人机措施，以确保无人机能够突防，或者那些俄罗斯通信链路不被切断。”
"They are using the principles of mesh networking to combat the counter-drone measures taken by Ukraine to ensure that drones can't get through or that those Russian communication links are broken," Chell said.
FBI警告：战场式无人机袭击可能波及美国：“只是时间问题” 他说：“如果俄罗斯拥有多个节点能够与一台设备通信，并能利用该设备与蜂拥而至区域的其他设备通信，乌克兰将面临数百个甚至更多同时需要切断的连接，才能击落那些无人机。”
FBI WARNS BATTLEFIELD-STYLE DRONE ATTACKS COULD REACH US: 'ONLY A MATTER OF TIME' "If Russia had multiple nodes that could communicate with a device and could use the device to communicate with other devices swarming the area, Ukraine would be faced with multiple, maybe even hundreds of connections to have to break simultaneously in order to bring that drone down," he said.
10月3日，乌克兰总统国防技术顾问谢尔盖·别斯克列斯特诺夫也警告称，俄罗斯部队可能已在基辅隐藏了小型信号增强器，即这些地面中继器，以延伸无人机控制范围。
On Oct. 3, Serhii Beskrestnov, a defense technology adviser to the Ukrainian presidency, also warned that Russian forces may have hidden the small signal boosters, or these ground repeaters, inside Kyiv to extend drone control.
别斯克列斯特诺夫警告说：“此类中继器难以发现，但我们必须搜寻它们。只要它们存在，用电子战屏蔽城市就不会有效。”
"Such repeaters are difficult to find, but we must search for them. As long as they exist, shielding the city with electronic warfare will not be effective," Beskrestnov warned.
具体而言，这些中继器是隐蔽的小型无线电中继设备，能够接收并转发信号，延长无人机操作员的控制距离，同时帮助在直接通信或GPS信号可能受干扰的区域维持控制。
Specifically, the repeaters are small concealed radio relay devices that receive and retransmit signals, extending the range of drone operators while helping maintain control in areas where direct communications or GPS signals may be disrupted.
这些中继器的尺寸实际上大约相当于一个大号饭盒。它们非常容易隐藏，而且不需要一直开启，因此很难通过电子手段探测到，”切尔说。
"The size of these repeaters is really about the size of a large lunchbox. They're very easy to conceal, and they don't have to be turned on all the time, so they're hard to detect electronically," Chell said.
“将一两个甚至三个这样的设备移入基辅这样规模的城市，效果会非常显著。”
"Moving one or two or even three of these into a city the size of Kyiv can be hugely effective."
俄罗斯暴露北约武器短板，顶级指挥官警告“数学计算对西方不利” 技术分析师还指出，9月4日对基辅市中心弗拉基米尔斯卡街乌克兰国家安全局（SBU）总部的袭击，是这一战术的早期证据。
RUSSIA EXPOSES NATO WEAPONS GAP AS TOP COMMANDER WARNS ‘THE MATH IS NOT IN FAVOR OF THE WEST’ Technical analysts also pointed to a Sept. 4 strike on the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) headquarters on Volodymyrska Street in central Kyiv as early evidence of the tactic.
据报道，追踪数据显示袭击期间没有中继无人机在空中，这加剧了人们的担忧：隐藏的地面中继器可能被用来维持与攻击无人机的通信。
Tracking data reportedly showed no relay drones airborne during the strike, fueling concerns that hidden ground-based repeaters may have been used to maintain communications with the attacking drone.
“他们将竭尽所能，不仅将尽可能多的此类设备移入基辅，还会部署到全国任何地点，甚至作战战场，”切尔说。
"They will be doing everything they can to move as many of these things not just into Kyiv, but at any location in the country, even operational battlefields," Chell said.
“现实是，每在网状网络中增加一个节点，都会成倍地提高该网络的效率、韧性和能力。” 乌克兰总统泽连斯基9月28日表示，虽然乌克兰在大规模袭击中拦截了约70%的常规俄罗斯无人机，但面对更新、更快的喷气式无人机，拦截率下降至57%。
"The reality is every time you put another node on a mesh network, you exponentially increase the efficiency, resiliency, and capability of that network." Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Sept. 28 that while Ukraine intercepts about 70% of conventional Russian drones during mass attacks, interception rates fall to 57% against newer, faster jet-powered UAVs.
乌克兰战场正在改变北约的未来 “显而易见，俄罗斯目前至少没有停战准备，”泽连斯基说。
UKRAINE’S BATTLEFIELD IS TRANSFORMING THE FUTURE OF NATO "It is obvious that the Russians are not preparing to stop the war – at least not at the moment," Zelenskyy said.
“明年俄罗斯计划仅在生产喷气式无人机和徘弹弹药上就花费120亿美元。这只是一类武器。当然，这不仅关乎乌克兰，”他补充道，据《乌克兰真理报》报道。
"Next year Russia plans to spend US$12 billion just on producing jet-powered drones and loitering munitions. And that's only one category of weapons. Of course, this doesn't only relate to Ukraine," he added, according to Ukrainska Pravda.
“俄罗斯很可能有意在必要时扩大战争规模，”切尔警告称，并指出无人机本身正变得次要，引导它们的通信架构才是关键。
"Russia probably has the intention of, if needed, expanding this war," Chell warned, arguing that drones themselves are becoming secondary to the communications architecture that guides them.
“网络现在就是武器，而无人机则是执行预期结果的工具，”他说。
"The network is now the weapon, and the drone is what executes the desired result," he said.
“这是战争未来在此展开的战术中一个令人难以置信的时刻，”切尔总结道。
"This is an unbelievable moment in the tactics of what's unfolding here with the future of warfare," Chell concluded.
