Abstract

But while Russia has updated its satellites over the years, Glonass isn't as accurate as GPS, and that's having an impact on its war effort. The Russian constellation of two dozen positioning, navigation and timing satellites - called Glonass - dates back to the 1980s, when the USSR created it as a rival to the US-run Global Positioning System.
