How do you destroy stratagem jammers?

[Blaze Shadowflame]

All four of us used everything we had on that thing, it wouldn't fall. What are you supposed to do to break those things?

EDIT: Since people have taken interest in this thread again, let me clarify some things; this post was made after my very first run-in with a jammer while fighting bots, so I had no idea how to deal with it. I turned it off with the console, but didn't receive the ability to call in a hellbomb. And all 4 of us on that mission used every stratagem we had to try to bring it down. Precision strikes, airstrikes, cluster bombs, 500kg bombs, nothing worked. It seems what had happened was the game bugged out twice: it wouldn't give us a hellbomb and made that particular jammer invincible.

you have to use the console next to disable it so you can call down a hellbomb

But what if it doesn't give you the option to call a hellbomb?

[Mr. Bix]

being near the jammer while it's disabled puts the hellbomb in your stratagem list, same as anything else that requires a big boom to destroy

failing that, a precision orbital strike would probably do the trick

This was the issue I just ran into today. I followed every step up to the point that the objective window said "destroy stratagem jammer," but I didn't have the hellbomb available in my list of stratagems. Everything else was unjammed/usable, but no hellbomb in the list. I ended up using an Eagle 500kg to destroy it. I also had a research station secondary in the same run that didn't give me the option for a hellbomb so I'm fairly certain the game was bugged.

Pretty much sure there is a way to destroy it while skipping the console step. Saw teammates do it, but I havent got a chance to understand how

[Veritas]

they either have a fabricator attached that will blow up the jammer when destroyed or a terminal to shut them down, sometimes both

[shelledfade]

sometimes they bug and are invincible unfortunately. Not the only 2ndary objective I've seen where it could not be destroyed and there was no hellbomb option.

Wrong answer. I went through the entire console process all the way to step 4. Then it said "Destroy the Jammer" in so many words. No Hellbomb call in available. 500 pound bombs wouldn't destroy it. Eagle strike x 6 call ins wouldn't destroy it.

Something is bugged.

I think sometimes it does not show the hellbomb in the stratagem list but you can still do the code for it and it will activate

Issue I had was a jammer close to another jammer which prevented the call down. We solved by calling down a laser from outside the range and destroying it that way (which would work without disabling the jammer using the terminal). The "proper" way would be disable it, go and disable the other one, then call down the hellbomb for each once both are disabled.

I have a theory but I haven't had a chance to test it yet. After you power the console down it wants you to destroy 5 or 6 points around the base and not just the main antennae tower, I think it's the main tower + all of the little spiky antennae looking things around the base. Usually enough explosions in the area do the trick so I haven't really tested but I did notice you can blow up the little antennae.

Or maybe it's bugging out it's supposed to complete after the the main antennae tower goes down.

Ever tried to actually go to that building and look for something none-booomboom?

[Soppothetoppo]

If there is a fabricator connected to it just blow the fabricator if not you gotta disable it via terminal and then call a hellbomb or a 500kg on it

They gave us the QC.
The code to provide the option to call in a hellbomb seems to be targeting a specific strategem slot in some circumstances, instead of just targeting an open one.

Since this slot is currently filled by the free strategem they gave us, the option is unavailable.

Is my guess. Because it only happens at some locations that normally provide hellbombs, only when we have a free one in that slot.
