Depends greatly on the AA capabilities of your adversary. Slower moving, larger drones with guns are easier to detect and shoot down than missiles, and probably more expensive than the average missile as well.

The only way a gun might be more efficient is in a situation with total air supremacy like Iraq or Afghanistan, and the targets would ideally be in the open.

Couldn't the aeronautical capabilities of an unpiloted aircraft have a significantly higher ceiling if the design doesn't need to accommodate for limiting g-forces on a human?

> A single observer can't really say for certain that jamming is happening; you need a distributed sample from multiple different sensors over a period of time to have reasonably high confidence.

Could you use RTLSDR triangulation to hone in on granular lat long of jamming sources?

KrakenSDR would do a good job of this, they combine five RTLSDR into a coherent array. The top end of their tuning range is 1766 MHz which would include the 1575 MHz of the GPS L1 signal.

The little five antenna array can even attach on the roof of a car for a handy ground plane. Prob not a good idea to drive with it out there tho.

If you didn't work together in Newfoundland, you didn't survive.

Do you have a source for that or any reason for picking 3 other than an arbitrary anecdotal choice?

There is also the valproic acid study where the window of the critical period appeared to be reopened in a two week study of 24 adult individuals.

Valproic acid is used as an anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer, thought to enhance brain plasticity, and (unfortunately) can cause big problems in livers.

When there is greater understanding of the pathways affected there could be safer options for re-entering the critical period after the window has closed.

(edit: age of critical window discussed in the study here - https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnsys.2013.0010...)
