NATO declines to detail protection of civilian flights during nuclear drill

Original: I've asked # NATO how they will protect civilian flights from electronic warfare and # GPS jamming during the # nuclear

A journalist asked NATO how it will protect civilian flights from electronic warfare and GPS jamming during the Steadfast Noon nuclear exercise in Italy. After two days of silence, NATO replied that for security and operational reasons it does not disclose details. The exchange raises questions about the risks that large military drills involving nuclear-capable aircraft pose to civil aviation navigation across Europe.

Why now: NATO's refusal to explain its countermeasures against GPS jamming during a nuclear drill touches ongoing concerns about electronic warfare affecting civil aviation in Europe.
