In response to the incident involving UK Defence Minister Grant Shapps, the British government is building a massive anti-jamming facility to protect military equipment from GPS disruptions.
Maria Eagle emphasized that the new test facility will 'keep our armed forces better protected' against the 'increasingly common hostile threat' posed by GPS jamming.
The anechoic chamber in Wiltshire is designed to test military assets in a controlled environment, simulating GPS jamming without affecting external signals.
Set to open in 2026, the hangar will be able to test large military assets like Chinook helicopters, ensuring their resilience against GPS jamming.
