How this Ukrainian walkie-talkie maker caught the attention of the US military
Briefly

Himera, a Ukrainian tech startup established post-Russia's invasion, designs electronic warfare-resistant walkie-talkies. Their flagship products include the G1 Pro radio and B1 repeater for extended communication. The G1 Pro utilizes frequency-hopping technology to counteract electronic warfare efforts that aim to disrupt communications. This tech has garnered attention, especially after the US Air Force began testing it. The collaboration between Himera and Reticulate Micro aims to integrate secure video transmission capabilities with their radios, enhancing situational awareness for military personnel on the battlefield. Himera exemplifies the innovation seen in Ukraine's defense tech sector since 2022.
The G1 is EW-resistant, using frequency-hopping technology to help evade electronic warfare interference, which seeks to disrupt and jam certain signals like GPS, radio, and video.
