In the opening nights of Operation Desert Storm, Soviet-trained Iraqi radar crews were confident their air defense network could repel any American air incursion. But they were wrong. What they didn’t expect was that the biggest threat wouldn’t be a stealth jet or cruise missile—it would be a massive, 200-ton bomber from the 1950s. The B-52 Stratofortress didn’t fire a single shot. It didn’t drop a single bomb. It simply flew above the battlefield—and jammed every radar in its path into silence.
This documentary reveals how a single B-52, outfitted with advanced electronic warfare pods, shut down an entire Soviet-designed missile division without ever entering engagement range. Learn how American doctrine turned a legacy bomber into a modern electromagnetic weapon. Discover the truth behind ALQ-155 and ALQ-172 jamming systems, and how the U.S. used real-time SIGINT coordination to blind enemy defenses across hundreds of kilometers.
Watch as Soviet officers are forced to confront a terrifying reality: their radar-based doctrine was never designed to survive an enemy that didn’t need to hide—because it could simply switch off your eyes.
