Russia is jamming U.S. drones over Syria in a pre-emptive step to stop airstrikes, NBC News reported on Tuesday.
The effort began a few weeks ago with the GPS system on some smaller drones. Russia blocked or scrambled the reception signal to these drones causing them to crash or malfunction.
The Russians were apparently concerned about a possible U.S. attack in wake of new reports of chemical weapons being used in Syria by the Russian-backed Assad regime. The effort has “seriously” affected U.S. military operations in the region, according to the report.
First good news I’ve heard all day. Hope they keep up the good work.
привет Владимир, lol
Somebody needs to check them. The American people can’t or won’t.
When can I buy one of those jamming devices?
Amazon
Actually, jammers4u.com
Turns out there are tons of retailers selling jammers because drones are a nuisance(?). Might be a good investment for preppers back off grid, or those who think a civil war is on the way. Get it now while you can.
You’re welcome.
Wow, they be expensive
“…. according to four U.S. officials.”
NBC’s usual reliable anonymous sources, and NBC never reports false stories.
How on earth are our leaders imagining that dicking around like this is in anybodys best interest? They are gonna start a catafuckingstrophic war over literally nothing. I wonder what the context will be for the war after armageddon. For fucks sake, didnt we elect trump to stop this from happening? Now we have bipartisan support for disaster. Perfect. Are the mets on tonite?
I never imagined I’d be rooting for the Ruskies.
