@Chalimanga Ex-Pentagon officer praises Russia's EW systems triumphantly jamming Western weapons in Ukraine
"Russia has the most capable electronic warfare systems in the world, with the longest range and most powerful GPS and radio frequency jammers of any nation," David T. Pyne, an EMP Task Force scholar and former US Department of Defense officer, told Sputnik.
Pyne said he was impressed by "the speed at which Russian long-range jammers have been able to adapt to jamming new US and NATO weapon systems that have been introduced into the [Ukraine] conflict."
Russian EW systems "have proven effective at causing 90% of guided missile and drone systems supplied by the US to Ukraine to miss their target, most importantly HIMARS [High Mobility Artillery Rocket System]," the ex-Pentagon officer said.
He suggested that Russian GPS jammers "will likely prove increasingly effective against the recently supplied extended range US ATACMS [Army Tactical Missile System] missiles as well."
Additionally, Russian jamming systems “are likely proving increasingly effective against US supplied Ukrainian air defense systems including Patriot and Hawk [interceptor] missiles enabling Russia to increase its air superiority over Ukraine," Pyne stressed.
Earlier this month, the Washington Post, citing Ukrainian commanders and a Ukrainian military research project, reported that the Russian army's jamming systems have disrupted the accuracy of some of Ukraine's US-supplied precision-guided weapons, prompting Ukrainian forces to stop using them on the battlefield.
