As we speak. Occurring!
GPS [Ground Positioning System] negated.

"GPS JAMMING EXPECTED IN SOUTHEAST DURING MILITARY EXERCISE"
"GPS reception may be unavailable or unreliable over a large portion of the southeastern states and the Caribbean during offshore military exercises scheduled between January 16 and 24. The FAA has posted a flight advisory for the exercises that will require jamming of GPS signals for periods of several hours each day of the event."
GPS denied to the military during military exercise [war games]. Hardly unique and done for good reason. Test the ability for ground/air/naval forces to navigate using the ancient and venerable methods. Map reading, land navigation, compass reading, pacing for the ground forces. Celestial and astral navigation using the sun, moon, stars and sextant as aids for the sailors.
Military combatants resorting to traditional and time-worn navigation in case of war, high-level-technology of the GPS variety denied through hostile action, jamming or destruction of satellites in orbit.
I am fond of saying that sometimes the old ways are the best ways. Undeniably this is so.
See previous blog entries, American military forces denied GPS during training exercises, intentional and done for good reason:
