Official reporting highlights a mix of advanced radiotechnical systems and passive listening stations, with Barbara aerostats to follow in later years. That mix matters: passive sensors can geolocate emitters and track certain targets without radiating, complicating jamming and anti-radiation tactics, while the aerostat-borne radar restores line-of-sight coverage at low altitude where conventional ground radars are physics-limited.
