What Ukraine needs and the US is currently working on is Home on Jam seekers for the JDAM and SDBs Once those are fielded, Russian jammers will become useless

Nope the tech already exist and is being built The US developed Home on Jam seekers for the JDAM and SDBs years ago, they werent adopted so the US gave the company who made them long ago a contract to make some for Ukraine Secondly, the AGM-88 can lock on to the jammer but Ukraine's MIG-29 and Su-27 cant fully use the AGM-88 Only the F-16 will able to do as well as JDAM and SDBs fitted with Home on Jam seekers

Correction Russian jamming only works because Ukraine lacks the means to counter them

The solution to the problem which the US has in the works is that JDAM as well SDB can be fitted with Home on Jam seekers Once those arrive, Russia jammers will become useless

@tedarcher9120 incorrect they were developed in 2014 the US tested them but never adopted them So all the company has to do is make them again which wont take long
1
@tedarcher9120 Simple The US couldnt justify a need or reason for them when the AGM-88 does the same job but from longer range however Ukraine has shown the need for ground forces to have such a capability on tap in case of contested airspace As building them This isnt an aircraft, just a simple seeker which doesnt need long to make Since it was done in 2014, that means everything was stored digitally They simply have to pull it up , buy the parts and build or use newer tech again not a long process

Thats the factor people are missing Russia jammers are working because Ukraine lacks the means to effectively neutralize them Ukraine has HARMS but the MIG-29s and Su-27 can only use them with preloaded target info They dont have the ability to retarget them in flight Once the F-16 arrives, they can fully use the AGM-88 against jammers

Heres new flash they are not in conflict with US The USAF would have RC-135 Rivet Joint locate the general area where jammers and task EA-18G to trilaterate the location The EA-18G using the newer AGM-88G can strike the jammer from over 150 miles away or task an F-16CJ to do The irony of Russian jamming is that the US provided Ukraine with its anti-jamming measures for JDAMs and none worked so they are providing Ukraine with home on jammer seekers for the JDAMs and SDB That tells the US in potential conflict with Russia, its simpler to destroy the jammers Lockheed is pitching the Hypersonic Mako Multi-Mission Hypersonic Missile as a weapon able carry out time sensitive strikes against jammers and other mobile targets
