Graphite filament weapons were used to temporarily disable power grids in Serbia during Allied Force. There were rumors that there would be TLAMs deploying this weapon in the present campaign. However, the ground war progressed so quickly, there appeared to be no need. The Iraqis turned the power off in Bagdad by themselves.

In Iraqi Freedom, striking C3 had a high priority. The positions of communications antennas and even fiber optic nodes are known from good recon. All I am saying is that they are dealt with most efficiently by physical destruction - rather than inflicting some internal injury which may be hard to assess. 2,000lb of Mk84 (tritonal explosive) with a JDAM attachment inexpensively deals targets on the surface while 2,000lb of BLU-109 (PBXN-109 explosive) with a similar a attachment deals quite well with buried targets.

炸彈轟炸光纖線路並不像想像中的接起來就好，美軍最近的實驗發現，爆炸威力可以把幾哩管道內的線路全部扭曲，所以高爆炸藥仍是對付抗EMP光纖線路的王道。

The whole point about the Network-centric way of doing things is that multiple sensors can be netted together. This can be passive sensors for DF on radars. With multiple DF cuts - which could be from different platform simultaneously - you would get a good enough fix for an attack with weapons such as JSOW that can cover an area the size of a football field with bomblets. You would need systems that has as good DF resolution as that on the EA-6B - but you are right, a single plane doing multiple cuts might not be good enough. Against fixed radars or ones that takes 15 minutes to uproot and move - this would be effective,

The Growler can carry an ALQ-99 Low Band jammer pod on the center-line, two High Band ALQ-99 jammer pods under the wing plus two AARGM and two drop tanks.
