The newest version of Russia’s combined system of communications, data exchange, navigation and identification (OSNOD) with enhanced encryption protection and anti-jamming features is now being tested for Russia’s Su-57 fifth-generation multirole fighter jet. This reported by TASS.

Alexei Ratner, the head of the Polet science and technical center of the Russian Electronics holding (part of Rostec state corporation), told TASS that the system has been developed for a long period of time and has already been available in several variants.

"The Su-57 variant was designed specifically for this aircraft and is now undergoing state trials as part of its systems," Ratner said.

In addition to advanced anti-jamming technologies, the system "ensures constant cryptographic protection of communications." "In other words, intercepting them will produce no result," Ratner said, adding that those features make the system one of the world’s most protected ones.
