Ukraine Seeks 450 Kph Starlink Limit to Counter Jet Drones

Ukraine is seeking unrestricted Starlink service for military terminals after speed limits disrupted drone operations on Oct. 14. Ukrainian sources say terminals need to remain connected at speeds of at least 450 kph to support efforts against faster, jet-powered Russian Shahed drones.
