The United States overwhelmed by the Russian electronic war
Speaking April 24, 2018 at the GEOINT 2018 Symposium, General Raymond A. Thomas III (Commander-in-Chief of Special Operations (USSOCOM), revealed the scale of the electronic warfare between the United States and "the enemy" (understand Russia).
According to him, "the enemy" systematically blurs or inhibits the US systems in Syria, making it impossible for the Pentagon to monitor the combat zone. During the tripartite attack on April 14, the Russian army managed to hack the GPS transmissions so that some missiles were diverted. Worse, friend / foe recognition systems were no longer working. Under these conditions, it became not only useless, but dangerous to use the surveillance planes.
