The data of simultaneous measurements of the polarization jet from the Yakutsk ground-based vertical radio sounding station and satellite observations of narrow electron density dips or fast westward drifts of the ionospheric plasma from satellites of the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) series. The events are based on ground-based ionospheric measurements and cover the time interval from March 1989 to December 2015, i.e. about 26 years. The simultaneity of observations is ensured by a time period of approximately ±1.5 h from the time of registration of signs of a polarization jet according to the data of a ground-based ionospheric sounding station or by the an orbital period of DMSP satellites around the Earth. Based on data of long-term simultaneous satellite and ground-based measurements (126 events), it was shown and confirmed that the presence of characteristic additional traces of reflections on ionograms indicates the presence of narrow and fast drifts of ionospheric plasma or a polarization jet near the zenith of the observation station. It is also shown that the quasi-instantaneous longitude extent of a polarization jet at subauroral latitudes can in some cases reach 8 h or 120° by longitude.
