    Source is suspect, basically some dude’s blog. I’d take this with a grain of salt.

      here’s a different source for you basically saying the same thing https://www.businessinsider.com/us-himars-completely-ineffective-against-russian-jamming-report-2024-5

        Following the trail to the real source of the 90% figure, this doesn’t appear to be a current statistic.

        The success rate for the U.S.-designed Excalibur shells, for example, fell sharply over a period of months — to less than 10 percent hitting their targets — before Ukraine’s military abandoned them last year, according to the confidential Ukrainian assessments.

        This also is only regarding GPS jamming, which isn’t the only method of navigation. I feel the article is exaggerating quite a bit. I have no doubt GPS jamming was quite effective a year ago, I also have no doubt the Ukrainians have adapted since then.

          I haven’t seen anything to suggest that the situation has gotten better since these figures came out. Given that Ukrainian army is currently complaining more than ever, doesn’t seem like they adapted.
