Why would a nation that still to this day hasn't orbited a man around the Earth - think that it could jam the communications of a nation that has been to the Moon... 33 years ago?!

So now we know how to jam their communications and have tested our new communication systems that we built after the 1995 incident.

However, they could have been testing their new communications systems by getting us to jam them.

The wonderful world of black ops.

Nothing to see here, back to making tin foil beanies.

Because we've exported all our manufacturing technology to them.

They may have gotten everything THEY know from us, but it's not everything WE know.

So to speak. I'm sure being jammed provides the ChiComs with absolutely no useful information for reverse-engineering or other analyses of our technologies.

What if they are monitoring the signals and figuring out what kind and how we jam? They are learning how we do things, and how their stuff reacts to it...possible no?

We shouldn't do this anymore, because they'll learn how we do it and come up with possible countermeasures. It's good to know they can do it though.

You've clearly never flown in a Chinese "fighter" jet if you think that...

Has Clinton commented yet about the hate crime our military committed against his buddies in China yet?

China is testing our capabilities with these electronic challenges.

Every time they do that, the iron filings on our machine shop floor, are attracted to the computer network cables.

I do wish they'd stop doing that!

We're saving the Area 51 stuff for when we really need it. :^)

And we might not jam the same things in wartime, huh?

Uncertainty is the only certainty you get in the field of electronic warfare.
