[Milsurplus] Radio Proximity Fuze Jammer

A jammer developed by Germany wouldn't have helped them out. The front line infantry couldn't have a beast like that to bring to the front, where they
were being punished by VT fuze air bursts. There wasn't enough left of the Luftwaffe bombers to employ these either; and for the V-1 and V-2 the load for
a powered jammer would be prohibitive. Even if the technology was transferred to Japan, I think Japanese industry and avionics could not have practically
manufactured and deployed such an instrument in their decaying air forces. This is not to say a jammer wouldn't work satisfactorily: the superregen circuit
is very sensitive and not very selective. Just my thoughts on this.
