The US Army has debuted the “Hammer of the Gods” — a cutting-edge new weapon-disrupting system designed to trick precision-guided enemy projectiles into missing their targets.
The portable electronic system, which can be deployed covertly from US military vessels, blinds the guidance systems of long-range artillery, guided missiles and cruise missiles, rendering them far less effective.
The military has been testing land-based variants for the last two years, but its test earlier this month off the US West Coast marks the first time it’s been demonstrated for maritime use, the Army said.
The signal disruptor works by jamming precision weaponry’s positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) signals – which are needed to ensure armaments hit their intended targets.
Without PNT data, these advanced weapon systems are effectively flying blind, increasing the odds of missed targets and mission delays.
The system also deploys a communications network to ensure friendly forces can stay in contact even when the Hammer of the Gods is pumping out its disruptive signal, or when operating in degraded environments.
Army officials told Fox News this month’s test run proved the system could be deployed, operated and recovered in a real-world maritime environment.
The test of the Hammer of the Gods was only the most recent example of the US flexing its advanced military tech in recent months.

I wonder how this compares in effectiveness to HELIOS?
President Trump couldn’t help but boast a bit about the impressive new tech on a call with The Post at the time.
“Nobody even knows what that is. Nobody has ever heard of it before,” and hinted that the US military has even more tricks up its camouflaged sleeve.
“We have many other things that nobody has ever heard about. We have equipment the likes of which nobody has ever even thought about,” he intimated.
Trump hinted that the US military can collapse tunnels as it finds them.
Once the missile detects jamming, it may home in on Hammer of the Gods.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde and sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming
On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
Chinese copy in 3...2...

How long will it take the Russians to neutralize attacks using this weapon and regain the initiative in the war in Ukraine?
On the other hand, if the Chinese have designs on Siberia after the expected disintegration of Russia, China might not want Russia to have this defensive weapon.

Tactical Nukes sound so much better.
This sounds pretty cool.
Like Dr. Richard Gatling, who thought that he could invent a weapon so terrible it would save lives of Soldiers.
At least we’re on the leading edge of technology. Even if it might not last long.
Did it knock down the 5 missiles yesterday?
Just how far off course can it guide the item and what will it hit instead? Sounds a bit limited to me.
What could go wrong? Like so many other things I see these days, let ‘er rip and see what happens, the whiz kids are infallible.
What about the Lepage Glue Gun?
