What’s new: A multi-GNSS jammer from German manufacturer HENSOLDT.
Why it’s important: This kind of very open advertising is a symptom of how drones have become a real threat and GNSS jamming is moving into the mainstream.
What else to know:
- This is being marketed to government security forces and will almost assuredly only be sold to them.
- From the press release: “The jamming effect extends to both civilian and military variants of these systems, as well as encrypted signal variants. The system thus covers the entire range of currently relevant frequency and coding variants.”
- Similar equipment, though perhaps not as well tested and manufactured, has long been available on the ‘gray market.’ For example, one of our favorite sites, jammerall.com, which says it sells only for “legal uses,” has this nifty briefcase with all kinds of capabilities including jamming all GNSS.
