I'll watch the series again and see how strong my googlefu is. I distinctly remember reading that the N-Jammer Canceler having that sort of effect. |

I think its just a different type of targeting program that lets it lock onto more targets that it has guns and then cycle through the targets in a repeated firing pattern.
Something that would be unwise or wasteful to use on regular battery powered suits that needs to be frugal with shots, but not the Freedom which can fire 10 or so volleys in succession without worrying about power consumption. |

N-Jammer Canceller effect is too overestimated
In the Blue Frame story, the pilot whose name I forgot need to use his positron cannon POINT BLANK because the target's NJC only go that far (and he need the nuclear reactor pack to go functional to use the cannon)

Warships in CE probably use non neutron emission nuclear reactors , that explains why they are not affected
Njammers afftect the range of radars and conventional communication's (note range) , not effectiveness freedom can lock on any target as long has its on its sensors range , other unit's cannot do this thats why Destiny's target system took time to target due to freedom being away Since most MS fights are close mid ranged target systems are not affected in performance due to Njammer interference |

After reading this debate the phrase "necessity is the mother of all invention" comes to mind. Or in this case improvement anyway. As I'd think the introduction of N-Jammers would motivate both ZAFT and EA to improve their radar/laser/thermal tracking/targeting technologies. So as to at the very least minimize the effects on radar & radio based communication.
Which is why the Freedom could do those multi-lock sequences. It was equipped with the latest and greatest in radar/laser/thermal tracking/targeting tech ZAFT could produce at that point. |

If a sensor package, something that could readily become common-place, were able to overcome the jamming effect, suddenly long range missiles are a big deal again. |

Really and where did you get that? Because it was my understanding that the radar/radio interference was purely an unintended side effect of the N-Jammers primary purpose of stopping nuclear reactions?
Besides if it was intentional why would the Chaos and Blaze Zaku's have guided missiles? |

As for Chaos and Blaze, just because it's a missile, doesn't mean it's radar-guided. Heat-seekers and wire-guided missiles are just two other examples of a way to improve accuracy. [cut] Last edited by james0246; 2013-12-23 at 10:34. |

[cut] The topic at hand is what CE ms/warships use to target other ms/warships do to the limitations imposed on radar/radio waves by N-Jammers. Along with how those methods could be improved. Last edited by james0246; 2013-12-23 at 10:35. |

After I made that point, you seemed to think that I was referring to something within the setting, like there was an in-universe reason for why people use mecha and guns and swords, like it were a personal preference that everyone agreed upon for how they kill one another. Which meant that you completely missed the point I was making, so I elaborated further, drawing comparisons to other series and the lengths writers will go to rationalize the use of equipment the characters are made to depend upon.

There's probably some confusion on the part of the technical designers in the series. Few of their characters have telepathy to overcome the hurdles the N-Jammers put in place. Wire-guided weapon platforms are cool in an old, but effective sort of way, but that would have been at odds with the "advanced" nature of Providence, Legend, and S. Freedom. So if they don't have a psycom and psychic powers, how can characters communicate with the DRAGOONs without wires? Well, the answer should have been obvious, but they didn't see it and instead pulled the word "quantum" out of their butts without any further explanation. |

.....
DRAGOON communication system SPECIFICALLY invented out of the blue to circumvent the effect of N-Jammer by using quantum communication system. DRAGOON also used to locate N-Jammer in the earth crust, allowing some of them to be removed.

yes, I know it's unreliable, which is why I'll double check using wayback machine on now dead gundamofficial and see if my claim is wrong. EDIT: Can't find anything about N-jammer being removed, so I concede.

Man I really wonder about the upcoming episodes, several are half clip show half actual show, will they just splice em together without the clips or add on to the series itself.
Hoping for some addons because god knows the last 10 episodes need it so bad. |
