Really? Where? I overview Edwards AFB last week (with clearance as Joshua Approach gave me a shortcut across the restricted areas,) I flew close to Vandenberg last month, not an overfly, but just on the edge of the airspace, I also flew near Fort Huachucha, AZ which is an Army Intel post. I flew right near the Yuma Proving Ground on another trip. Even flew right on the edge of the series of restricted areas containing Area 51 — not a single place was GPS jammed. Even Camp Peary and a few other extremely sensitive sites aren’t permanently jammed.
Even jamming near Nellis and Area 51 is done by NOTAM and not perpetual.
Maybe there is some permanent jamming somewhere but pilots would know about it as GPS availability knowledge is safety critical.
