Russia's Electronic Aggression: A Growing Threat to Global Aviation The recent incident in which GPS signals of an RAF jet carrying Defence Secretary John Healey were allegedly jammed by Russia while flying near the Russian border highlights a disturbing trend.

Similar incidents have been reported in the past, including a 2022 incident where a Russian Su 35 jet flew so close to a British reconnaissance aircraft that it triggered its emergency systems.
