NATO decided to return to using maps and compass

Belgian army personnel participating in NATO missions will be trained in the use of a compass and topographic maps in the event of a failure of GPS devices whose signals may be vulnerable. It is reported by the Belgian edition The morning with reference to own sources.

According to the publication, the Belgian military began training with topographic maps and a compass due to concerns about the vulnerability of GPS devices. The sad experience of the failure of the electronics, the newspaper writes, occurred last year during the NATO exercises in Norway, where Russia allegedly disrupted the GPS system, thereby trying to interfere with the alliance’s maneuvers.

Belgian soldiers must train again with a map and compass. Not because of nostalgia, but because of necessity: the army command is concerned about the vulnerability of GPS devices. Russia has proven that their signals are easily broken

- says the article.

At the same time, the source notes that in the Belgian army more and more training is carried out using staff maps and compass navigation. The Belgian Ministry of Defense declined to comment on this information, citing "operational security considerations." As noted, a similar trend is observed in the armies of other NATO member states.

Last year, the Norwegian military leadership and the Finnish Foreign Ministry accused Russia of allegedly interfering with the GPS system during the NATO Trident Juncture ("Single Trident") exercise. According to NATO, Russia allegedly suppressed GPS signals, thereby trying to prevent the alliance from conducting exercises.

Where there are maps, there is also a curvimeter.

Curvimeter is a device for measuring the length of curving lines, most often on topographic maps, plans and drawings. The curvimeter consists of a gear roller of known diameter on the handle and a counter of the number of teeth passed. To measure the length of the curve, a curvimeter roller is rolled along it

Not a circle, but a spiral.
Instead of GPS, a new, more robust system is being developed, capable of
distinguish, for example, a real signal from a fake one.
Do not have the illusion that satellite communications will be easy
drown out. The number of satellites is growing rapidly.
One SpaceX has made applications for 42,000 new satellites.
And global positioning support will be included
in a mobile network.

[Ural-4320]

Soon it will be like in the cartoon Wall-I, when he hooked on a rocket and flew to Axiom.

[TermNachTer]

I can apply for a million satellites. And can I do so much and run? Secondly, the GPS receiver may fail - then what should I do? Moreover, the situation is more than real. A friend said - his son flew to Afghanistan on Mi - 8. At some mattress super - duper helicopter, I do not remember the name - I do not want to lie. The system crashes, the GPS receiver is dead, and the pilot cannot read the map. An hour our pilot drove the mattress behind his tail to the base, because our pravak is guided by the map.

[voyaka uh]

"Will I be able to do so much and run?" /////
-----
To do - exactly, yes.
Communication satellites learned to sculpt like pies. Standard, compact.
Run - there are disputes. The recent trial launch of Falcon with 60 satellites,
when the second stage of the rocket "fired" them in a continuous burst as
from a machine gun, gave an example. It was a test. Only three of 60 did not earn.
This week there will be a second "machine gun burst" (the same 1st stage).
After 3-4 starts, they will check the network's ability to receive signals.
If the calculations are confirmed, "mascara the light" - we will see more in the night sky
satellites than stars.

[akims]

Talk about the introduction of a new global positioning system has been going on for a long time, but it still doesn’t reach the introduction. The chip of such a system is precisely in the complete absence of the satellite segment and ground stations. The coordinates are supposed to be determined using the Earth's magnetic field. Current systems are very vulnerable and expensive. Let's see how it goes on ....

[Aqr009]

Do not have the illusion that satellite communications will be easy
drown out. The number of satellites is growing rapidly.

Not all satellites are jammed, but only those in a certain area.
When installing interference, it is much easier to replace the signal, as the satellite begins to feverishly adjust to overcome the interference.
Naturally, he will not be able to overcome them, because the energy supply in it is obviously less than in the interference installer.

[voyaka uh]

Now there are very few GPS satellites. But (see above) their number will begin to grow soon
in progression. And over each area there will be many of them.
The idea that the Internet will go without providers. You buy a device for $ 200
or a Chinese copy for ...? and secured. There is no censorship. Good or bad: ?
But the Internet is of little power. Movies on it will not see.
And so, news, etc. - please.

why then without normal speed then such internet?

From October 11 to 20 in the mountains of Wales, in the United Kingdom, the next military international competitions Cambrian Patrol 2019 were held. They have been held since 1959.
The track is 65 km, everything is dragged on itself - each 40 kg, the time is under 48 hours. The main goal is to be able to fight behind enemy lines. Reconnaissance, patrolling, ambushes, attack, release of prisoners, negotiations with the "rebels", medical aid, work in contaminated areas, taking the "language" and working with it. Cross the river by swimming at night. Working with unfamiliar weapons. This year, all of this was bolstered by rain and strong winds.

Use of GPS is prohibited in these competitions.

More than 100 groups from different countries participated.

That's right. When only the navigators appeared, one acquaintance acquired this stray and drowned with it and two hounds into the taiga for hunting, decisively abandoning the remnants of the past, or a compass and maps. When in due time he did not appear at home, then, on the alarm raised by his relatives, they went to look for him. They searched for three days, but he drew himself, tired and losing one of the dogs. Trite - the battery died. So the compass and the map in the backpack should be registered on an ongoing basis, they do not take up much space and weigh almost nothing, much less depend on the availability of batteries and a GPS signal.

You probably don’t know, but the compass has not shown the true north for a long time, the magnetic pole and the North pole are very different

The location of the south magnetic pole does not coincide with the geographic south pole. Currently, it lies on the edge of Antarctica.
Traditionally, the end of the magnet, indicating the direction to the north, is called the north pole of the magnet, and the opposite end is called the south. As noted above, the difference between the geographic north magnetic pole and the earth’s north pole is negligible. Therefore, with a certain error, it can be argued that the compass with the blue part of the arrow points to the north (meaning both the geographical north magnetic pole and the north pole of the Earth).
Generally speaking, magnetic poles are also spoken in physics and geography of class 10 ...
Who generally thinks that the arrow points to the real north if a heap of metal distorts the compass data in cities and the compass on smart is generally lying ..
The map is just more accurate!

This is not entirely because in SV there was no question of gluing from a large number of sheets - this is a common event and all prepared maps were stored in their suitcases. But when the question concerned individual sheets and glues with the application of furnishing for the exercises, they were simply destroyed at the end, although they were in good condition, and this led to a large expenditure of maps. The NATO team decided this question easier - during the exercises they used a transparent plex superimposed on the card, and the card remained intact and lasted longer.

They didn’t draw anything on the cards. Generally. In any case, in intelligence. The edge that was was a tracing-paper on which it was possible to draw anything. But tracing paper was not made on the whole map, but on the site of specific events, if it fell into the hands of the enemy it could not be tied to a place. Therefore, when not needed, you can not even destroy, but simply throw it away. And the cards were both received clean and dealt. The cards were beautifully painted not for work (field), but for window dressing. Well, at headquarters, of course, they drew. Those that hung on the walls.

And on the wall I saw a work card at the head of the operations department of the headquarters of the 20 Guards Military Aviation Administration. Just shuttered, no suitcase.
You and I saw the same thing, sort of, but with different eyes. This, of course, is understandable - everyone did his own thing in its place. Service in the ORR, especially in the ORB, does not at all resemble a service in a brigade, for example, although there are a lot of intersections. The main thing is that we did one thing. And by the way, it’s not in vain that we have one Day - November 5

On alarm, there is no time to take cards - that's why they are stored in a suitcase. This is how it works in all major headquarters. Cabinets remain under the protection of those who remain at headquarters and are engaged in the evacuation of property.

No, this is not even a tourist card, but an ordinary two-kilometer map of the area, which is sold in bookstores.
But the maps for orienteering have a small scale, for example 1: 5000 (1 cm 50 meters), so a rotten stump will be marked there, but you won't go far with them. Usually they go 1: 200 (two-kilometer), the maximum that I used on a hike is 000: 1 (five-kilometer), but this is already an extreme option, as they say "to hell with the details, the main thing is the direction."

I never taught beforehand. At our tourist school it was like this: a meeting on Saturday at 8 am at the station. metro Taganskaya, the group is given an envelope with the words "open at the Kursk railway station" ...

It was different with us. At least 3 days to prepare for the "hike". If "on the way" there were some infrastructure objects that needed to be "visited", then they made their models in order to know in advance the entrances and exits, so to speak. Ideally, all the way was sculpted on the model. And they learned everything by heart. Actually, maps were needed only on the route, if suddenly it needed to be changed with a big "hook", which sometimes happened.
But it happened when it was written in the "envelope" - the start of your route is tomorrow, 100 km from here, you have to be there at 9 am. And then yes, you need a map, quick legs and ingenuity. Late - lost. And then 3-5 days on the route. And there is one condition - if at least once was found on the nomination or in the area - you withdraw from the "competition".

Belgian army personnel participating in NATO missions will be trained in the use of a compass and topographic maps in the event of a failure of GPS devices whose signals may be vulnerable.

This vulnerability was still known back in Soviet times, which is why then the development of the GLONASS system was curtailed in the interests of the Ministry of Defense. By the way, there were Soviet developments to determine the coordinates using data on working civilian radio electronic systems in peacetime, but because of the collapse of the country, this was turned off.

It is not necessary to disseminate such statements, because the current contingent of NATO troops in terms of rank and file is overwhelmingly either losers, or those who dream of obtaining citizenship in an accelerated manner, or the person does not have the means to receive education after the army. So not everything is as beautiful as you paint - they also have problems with manning the army, as we do. By the way, in Germany until 2011 the army was manned by draft, although the unification of Germany took place 20 years before, and it would seem that they could afford to have a contact army, but they pulled to the last. Why do not you say?

Once again I explain that the Western contract armies are faced with the problem of the low level of conscripts, and in addition they do not come from the best sections of society, which cannot but affect the atmosphere of military collectives. We have another problem - conscripts for a year do not need the army at all, because for a year it is impossible to train a specialist, even if he is smarter than a Western contractor.

I don’t know how the topography of the Russian conscripts was, but the Soviets were in complete order. About "them", and it was a company of the 75th Rangers regiment, I can say that their sergeants were superior only in age, but not in brains and quality of training. Then the chief of intelligence of the British Rhine Army, General Rogers, said - the Yankees are sure that you set them up with the cadets of the military school, and not the conscripts. So keep quiet about what is not in the subject.
And yes, sergeants in the SA, as a rule, were not trained in the troops, but in training units. And where they came to us from, they cooked them quite well. Of course, it happened that a person "did not pull", such turned into "free sergeants" in the position of an intelligence officer. They were brilliant as scouts.

the author of the book describes the stay of a group of “fur seals” on an aircraft carrier: “We were aboard the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk. During this period they had very serious problems. Several sailors, apparently former members of street gangs in the past, constantly provoked discipline violations. The commander of the ship called us to his place and informed us at what time the bandits were engaged in the gym. We went down to the simulator, the door locked behind us, and we solved the "gangster" problem. " This is probably exclusively an American method, to solve the gangster problem, in fact, gangster ways.
