- I_Am_Nous 3y agoFrequency hopping can only help if there's frequency to hop to, and I'd imagine a military jammer would angrily spew as wide a band of noise it can to ensure everything is jammed. A tank with an omnidirectional antenna jamming -30dB (or more because it's not like FCC/similar regulations apply to the military in a war zone) would have a pretty decent RF bubble around it.
- ProjectArcturis 3y agoMaybe the tank signal jammer is what causes the loss of visual contact before detonation that the article describes.
