    If it’s jamming the drone, it’s probably putting out lots of radio interference… which is a super strong signal the drone should either keep flying on it’s preprogrammed path while firing ordinance to take out the hammer, or just change direction towards the drone jammer. Either way, no more jamming.

    Considering Ukraine is already buying drone jammers off of Alibaba, why is this news? China produces stuff. People buy stuff. News at 11.

      It’s not exactly buying them online:

      A Chinese government agency established to promote trade with Russia has been trying to source drone detectors and jammers, adding to concerns that Beijing may be supplying dual-use technology to Moscow.

        And you think Alibaba doesn’t have a government agency with oversight over their international sales, sourcing, and distribution… Because?

        I’ll give you a hint: although Canadian oil production is private and American oil refining is private, the government still has oversight on interactions between the two. In fact, they have multiple government agencies governing a transaction between two private businesses. Imagine that.
