Russian forces have been jamming US drones in Syrian airspace affecting US military operations in the war-torn country, NBC News reported on April 10 citing four US officials.
NBC News reports (source):
The Russians began jamming some smaller U.S. drones several weeks ago, the officials said, after a series of suspected chemical weapons attacks on civilians in rebel-held eastern Ghouta. The Russian military was concerned the U.S. military would retaliate for the attacks and began jamming the GPS systems of drones operating in the area, the officials explained.
The Defense Department will not say whether the jamming is causing drones to crash, citing operational security. “The U.S. military maintains sufficient countermeasures and protections to ensure the safety of our manned and unmanned aircraft, our forces and the missions they support,” said Pentagon spokesman Eric Pahon.
But one official confirmed the tactic is having an operational impact on U.S. military operations in Syria.
According to the sources, the Russian equipment is very sophisticated, proving effective even against some encrypted signals and anti-jamming receivers.
However, the jamming has so far impacted only surveillance aircraft. US Unmanned aerial combat vehicle like Predators and Reapers have not been affected so far.
NBC News’ report came as the administration of US President Donald Trump is considerng a military option against the Syrian government in response to the alleged chemical attack in the town of Douma. If the attack endanger Russian forces deployed across Syria, Moscow may be forced to response by military measures. MORE HERE
This is more and more starting to look like the Guns of August unfortunately …
Jep, the show will go live soon…
Well it’s a start, but a very cautious start. I only hope this is just the beginning of something much more threatening. I don’t just want to see the Bear snarl, I want to see its claw and fangs exposed as it roars into violent rage.
You want to see the Bear roar into violent rage? Everyone will be dead when that happens.
I think that is nonsense. However a lot of people will be dead and provided they are the right people then that will be for the good.
Israel attack Iran assets at T4 Airbase is Iran having Area EW/Jamming….and Drones. T4 location gives Iran position to data mine Israel C4I and US C4I.
Iran has Jamming systems for area such as an airbase,….has jamming on air platform Such as Helicopter and Drone. Israel is seriously pissed off at the success Iran is having vs them in Technology war.
Iran hacking the US Drone years ago was no fluke…. Iran has Game… Israel’s tantrum ..stand off strikes …indicates it threatened by Iranian tech prowess : )
Give me your new car. ……Jesus just said so : )
Hey bitch! Suck my cock!
Putin should establish no fly zone over Syria for illegal intruders. Without wasting time, from now Russia should choose the targets in Israel, in UK, in US and in the sea. This war could be nuclear. Putin should be up otherwise the consequences for Russia would be worst than Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. If Russia win then US, UK and France may break which Israel don’t want.
Putin won’t do anything of the sort because he could never enforce it.
no one wins a nuclear war.
Remenber the legendary Ansariyah ambush in 1996…..the key was the hacking of the IDF drones data by Hezbollah /Iran EW unit in Lebanon.

Testing testing testing, thanks for the free samples.
Shit is hitting the fan right now.
Not yet. We right at the moment when the shit is in front of the fan, so that everyone can smell it.
As Bob Marley sang We jammin’ I wanna jam it with you We jammin’ I hope you like jammin’ too
HAHAHAAHAHA!!! YES I LOVE IT!!!
Perhaps this is a limited retaliation, proportionate to US aggression and the full monty will only be used if US brinkmanship escalates?
Russia Denies Reports About Blocking Signals From US Drones in #Syria : https://sptnkne.ws/hmxa
To be expected this is not the kind of military activity you admit to – keep the enemy off balance
This article is proof that Russia will not under any circumstance jam Jewish drones, as only USA drones are targeted. If Russia wipes away the Zionist, then the USA will leave the Middle East forever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09KZA-rKpw0
“US Unmanned aerial combat vehicle like Predators and Reapers have not been affected so far”
Perhaps because they haven’t been used?
This regime change agenda madness has to stop right now in Syria,if not then it will be repeated until eventually Iran,and even Russia will be the next targets.Better to sort out the zionists now before they destroy another sovereign government.
If WW3 start, the first NUKE must launch to BRUSSELS, but not any NUKE , a NUKE with 500 miles radio destruction power.
