It can also detect and classification enemy movements in these distances, including
the protection of radars and anti-aircraft systems from anti-radiation missiles 
by “covering” radar frequencies, preventing communication via a Distance of 300 
km, jamming frequencies from 0.5 to 40 GHz and preventing the use of identification
systems by enemies in the air, at sea and on land Piloted UAVs, removing their data
connection to the ground, tracking AEW aircraft at a distance of 500 km, burning
and damaging some radios with a directional Transmission power of 500 kW.
