‘Hammer of the Gods’ new secret weapon upgrades US Army power to blast enemy missile attacks

The US Army has debuted the “Hammer of 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.
