Iskander bridges GPS blackout with optical and radar terminal seekers — HUR parts data

Published 9 November 2026

Ukrainian EW analyst Serhii Beskrestnov (Flash channel) explains the precision mechanism behind Iskander strikes on bridges despite total GNSS suppression across Ukraine during alerts. He cites HUR War & Sanctions teardown entries showing two seeker families: optical homing heads and a more expensive radar-homing variant. In the terminal phase, a brief radar scan of the terrain feeds a trajectory correction into the guidance system before impact — bypassing the jamming that defeats inertial-only systems. Part-level documentation is linked to the Ukrainian GUR open database.
