The failure to stop the GPS jamming, perhaps by HARM knocking out transmitters doing the jamming, has been perplexing.
I had presumed that GPS jamming was local. That is, a jammer transmitter might protect some region near it.

I don't really know how long distance jamming might work. But, if it can be done, perhaps that explains why the jammers haven't been hit.
