The portable communication stations R-438 Barrier-T and R-438-M Belozer and mobile complex R-441 Liven are used. Phone calls go through government communication satellite channels (by the Russian company Satellite Communications) via satellites of the Express-AM series.<\/p>\n<p>Now, we found an image, posted by a militant at the end of January 2015.

It provides a full autonomy of operation transmitting voice, digital, and text messages, automated functional testing, and interface with a wide range of peripheral devices through ports RS-232C, C1-FL-BI. The radio station can be carried by one person.<\/p>\n<p>Mode of work:<\/p>\n<p>Duplex telecommunication;<\/p>\n<p>Simplex data communication;<\/p>\n<p>Formalized service communication mode;<\/p>\n<p>Transfer rates of 1200 bps;<\/p>\n<p>Two channel receiving mode.<\/p>\n<p>The Barrier-T works via satellite repeaters and allows subscribers to communicate from any place on the planet as well as exchange digital and text messages. \u00a0As compared to the stations of the previous generation, the data speed has increased by several times. On the move, the station is the size of a school backpack and can be carried by one person; it weighs 16 kg. Set up time is about 30 sec. The station provides formalized service communication and a secure telephone mode. The station operates in the range of 4 GHz to 6 GHz. Data transfer rate is 1200 bps. The advantages of satellite communication are a large range of reliable signals, especially in \u00a0areas with difficult terrain, regardless of the weather conditions and time of day and year, and a highly secure protection. Yaroslavl Radio Manufacturing Plant started production of the portable satellite radio station R-438 Barrier-T in 1998-2000 and the R-438M Belozer in 2002-2003. There was information about the use of the Barrier-T portable satellite communication stations on the Prudboy training range in Volgograd Oblast of Russia in March of 2014.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/BARIER-T_03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/BARIER-T_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"268\" height=\"202\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/BARIER-T_02.jpg\" width=\"168\" height=\"220\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When we were examining the roof of the building in the image, we discovered that this building \u00a0was seen in another picture.

The portable communication stations R-438 Barrier-T and R-438-M Belozer and mobile complex R-441 Liven are used. Phone calls go through government communication satellite channels (by the Russian company Satellite Communications) via satellites of the Express-AM series.\r\n\r\nNow, we found an image, posted by a militant at the end of January 2015. In this photo, there are two Barrier-T portable satellite communication stations, as well as an unidentified, for now,\u00a0 piece of Russian military equipment.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/R-438-Barer-T-krysha.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"709\" height=\"665\" \/>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/w0zML\">Information\u00a0<\/a>about and photos of the Barrier-T satellite communication station\r\n\r\nThe station is designed to provide satellite radio communications for units operating detached \u00a0from the main forces, as well as for use as a commander\u2019s personal station. It provides a full autonomy of operation transmitting voice, digital, and text messages, automated functional testing, and interface with a wide range of peripheral devices through ports RS-232C, C1-FL-BI. The radio station can be carried by one person.\r\n\r\nMode of work:\r\n\r\nDuplex telecommunication;\r\n\r\nSimplex data communication;\r\n\r\nFormalized service communication mode;\r\n\r\nTransfer rates of 1200 bps;\r\n\r\nTwo channel receiving mode.\r\n\r\nThe Barrier-T works via satellite repeaters and allows subscribers to communicate from any place on the planet as well as exchange digital and text messages. \u00a0As compared to the stations of the previous generation, the data speed has increased by several times. On the move, the station is the size of a school backpack and can be carried by one person; it weighs 16 kg. Set up time is about 30 sec. The station provides formalized service communication and a secure telephone mode. The station operates in the range of 4 GHz to 6 GHz. Data transfer rate is 1200 bps. The advantages of satellite communication are a large range of reliable signals, especially in \u00a0areas with difficult terrain, regardless of the weather conditions and time of day and year, and a highly secure protection. Yaroslavl Radio Manufacturing Plant started production of the portable satellite radio station R-438 Barrier-T in 1998-2000 and the R-438M Belozer in 2002-2003. There was information about the use of the Barrier-T portable satellite communication stations on the Prudboy training range in Volgograd Oblast of Russia in March of 2014.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/BARIER-T_03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" \/>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone \" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/BARIER-T_01.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"268\" height=\"202\" \/><img class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/BARIER-T_02.jpg\" width=\"168\" height=\"220\" \/>\r\n\r\nWhen we were examining the roof of the building in the image, we discovered that this building \u00a0was seen in another picture.
