Global navigation jamming will only get worse. The U.S. needs to move fast

GPS jamming and attacks on other global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are becoming increasingly common as geopolitical crises escalate.

Interesting implications, perhaps the global positioning system is not as infallible as we thought

GPS is irreplaceable in stuff like modern day aviation and shipping though.

    Isn’t that part of officers training in many navies. Why they train on the sail ships and keep one of those old ships around?
