Kyiv still considers its HIMARS rockets effective, but Russian jamming can cause them to miss a target by 50 feet or more.

One U.S. weapon used by aircraft, the GBU-39 small-diameter bomb, has proved resilient to jamming, according to the confidential documents. Nearly 90 percent of dropped bombs struck their target, the assessment found.

Many weapons are potent when they’re introduced, but they lose effectiveness over time.

This war is a constant cat and mouse game of innovation. Russian jamming abilities are currently strong, but can be beaten with technological advances.

  1. Send in the cheeseburger laxatives fueled hamster clone legions.

    Lets invent some new war crimes.

  2. Same thing in American civilian life between police with radar guns checking speed vs drivers avoiding speeding tickets. Hey Ukraine, collect and return as much data as you are able, even if unimportant, bc all is important. We will challenge and get back to you. Slava Ukraine and yet still Slava!

  3. I’m pretty sure Saab has a Russian insider threat in it.

  4. can’t you just use a multiwavelength transmission? I mean, what could Russians do? Jam everything from radiowaves to visible light?
