Presidential adviser says Ukraine is in talks to lift speed limit on military satellite network

Ukraine is in talks to lift a speed limit on its military satellite network, imposed without warning on October 15. This cap cuts internet data connections when communication terminals move faster than 160 kph, a common speed for Ukrainian drones equipped with Starshield. Lifting this limit could improve the performance of Ukraine's military drones, potentially giving them an advantage in combat situations. This development matters for markets and trade as it may impact the global defense industry and related technologies.

Why it matters
