The United States Army has unveiled a new electronic warfare system called "Hammer of the Gods," designed to disrupt precision-guided munitions of the enemy. The mobile system can be deployed from military vessels and blinds the guidance systems of long-range artillery, guided missiles, and cruise missiles, thereby significantly reducing their effectiveness. It operates by blocking positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) signals, which are essential for hitting targets. The army has tested land-based versions over the past two years, but the maritime test off the US West Coast earlier this month (July 2026) was the first to demonstrate deployment and operation in a real maritime environment. Military sources said the test was successful, marking a leap forward in defense capabilities.
