Just equip the airliners with modified AGM-88 HARM missiles to deal with the jammers.

Yea then they just start shooting down everything randomly,

And really want needs to be modified on the missiles? Sounds more like an airliner issue to me...

Sounds like they should remove the explosive part before putting into an airliner but maybe that's just me
