I'm sure there is EW going on in Ukraine, but just like we saw in the semi-ficticious movie "Pentagon Wars", US Weapons manufacturing for the weapons being sent to Ukraine are no more tested and proven than the Bradley Fighting Vehicle or the M-16 in its original release.
Our shit doesn't work. It never worked. It won't work. This is why lots of people are doubting that nuclear weapons are an actual threat.
Posted here because @Joe_McCarthy is a censorship fucking cunt and a pedophile admiring self absorbed glow nigger.
Well, thanks for that, but the Washington Post's explication for why US weapons don't work is like asking the defense contractors why their weapons don't work. Half truths, speculations, hemming, hawing, straight up bullshittin'. It's hundreds of billions of dollars and the shit just doesn't work.
We should consider that when thinking about a NATO war with Russia, even if we think nukes are fake and ghey. That's all I'm sayin'
It's possible for them to jam the GPS guidance on those U.S. glide bombs.
We already know that China, and others have successfully jammed / defeated U.S. Naval GPS systems to cause collisions, and near-misses all over the globe.
Yes. Even Iran showed that they could jam a GPS signal and bring our drones down. The ability to jam GPS certainly isn't new, and had to be considered when designing these weapons. It isn't gonna be a stretch to assume that the enemy could jam our GPS and have that as a consideration when designing its navigation systems. And, like I said, surely there is EW going on, but part of "working" would be the navigational systems that could function without GPS for at least a period of time, right?

GPS can be defeated by usb powered chink made dongle that costs $10 usd.
For all intents and purposes our military grade weapons defeat the enemies it was designed for. Fighting an enemy that isn't some goat sodomizing third world despot was never actually a mission goal. It was always meets specification for minimum cost to taxpayers. And making sure the only people that meet said specification are the people that paid the person to pen the specification.

If they were real they would have used them for construction and mining purposes 70 years ago.

EXACTLY! Thanks for reminding me of that stealth drone that Iran hacked and forced to land inside their airspace.
