"Signal jamming a factor in future wars, general says"

Yes, wasnt it rather funny how trying to jam signals is just a big homing
beacon too?

They figured quite quickly how to make a weapon to home right on in that
jamming signal.
Those "jammers" were eliminated

rather quickly.


I doubt it,how could thousands of low cost jammers be eliminated quickly?
Even if they could be eliminated eventually cost benefit outcome of a such
operation would not be very favorable.
Such jammers cost less than one Grand and Iraqis had only 6 or 7 of
them,thanks
to international embargo.
So its not very hard to imagine what whould happen if they had 6000-7000
instead of 6 or 7.

Isn't it true that the "jammers" they found in Iraq, were only good for
small area jamming? By the time the weapon got within that area, it was
probably too late to prevent it hitting its target due to ballistics etc?
