Starlink terminals in Ukraine reportedly restricted above 160 kph

Original: The operation of Starlink terminals in Ukraine was restricted above 160 kph

Starlink terminal operation in Ukraine has been restricted at speeds above 160 kph, according to a report circulating in discussions of the war. The limit would prevent the terminals from being used on fast-moving vehicles, such as those mounted on drones or other mobile platforms. Commenters are weighing the implications for Ukrainian military operations that rely on the satellite service.

Why now: Speed-based restrictions on Starlink could affect Ukrainian military use of the terminals, particularly on drones and vehicles.
