Interesting. The GPS function of the GPS constellation would not be vulnerable
to this type of attack because the delivered energy levels are low. Enough to
blind a camera but not enough to physically damage the bird.

Sufficiently high energy pulses could certainly be hypothesized, however.
Whether they can be delivered from the ground, I don't know. Possibly not due
to atmospheric dispersion and absorption. Someone here will probably know.
