Dear General Thomas,

Please stop talking to the public about jamming issues. All you are doing is informing our adversaries that their tactics are effective. The public can do nothing about it. You, your service, the DoD and the defense industry CAN.

Instead, use the intelligence collected by your EW birds to generate new tactics to counter the jamming.

Since these are ground based, a HARM or AARGM would do nicely too.

In any event, stop talking.

You're assuming the general is implying that the jamming is effective. If I were in charge of the military, I would never tell an enemy when their tactics were effective. This could be classic misinformation.

Ummm, respectfully disagree here.

The Bad Guys know their stuff is working with or without public comment from The Good Guys, because they’re not getting zapped by said platform.

I read somewhere one of the fundamental rules of cryptography was, “If you can do it, someone else can also.”

Looks like more jobs for RF engineers in defense work to me.
