The problem is hardly solved.

* Each jammer is different and caters to a specific type of detonator, or group of detonators.

* Effective ranges aren't large enough.

* Lack of proper training for soldiers means most have no idea if the jamming device is even working; many keep them off because they interfere with radios, etc.

* The lag time between new jammer tech and proper fielding is a year+ in many cases. I rarely road in a vehicle with the "latest and greatest".

Solved as in "That's good enough for now, we'll keep working on it."

Certainly more feasible that random flybys.

More feasible than flybys? Certainly. Good enough for now? It will be, when my friends stop getting blown up.

No offence intended, I'm ex-infantry myself.

But yeah, good enough for the time being, until something more practical can be implemented. Sucks that not being perfect means people die, but you will never win a chess match if you try not to lose a single piece.
