For entertainment purposes, this and similar tactics are featured in the Ghost in the Shell series of amines: 1. Towards the end of the original movie, the helicopter-based satellite-guided sniper weaponry gets communications disrupted, buying time for the main characters while snipers switch to manual mode. 2. In S1E2, the runaway tank intercepts the satellite coms guiding Saito's sniper optics, and uses it to dodge his first shot. 3. In S2E14, In a rouse meant to draw out Saito in a sniper duel, combat cyborg The Major tricks him into thinking she's stopped fighting in order to download short-range combat software from satellite. The trick works, she deflects his bullet with her own, then she shoots him in the face. They both become friends after that.
