The Stratagem Jammer is an 
Automaton tactical asset that disables the use of Stratagems in a 150m radius around the Jammer, including objective-specific stratagems. The massive radius of their jamming signal and vital importance of Stratagems to 
Helldivers makes them a high priority threat.
The Jammer will constantly spin its large tuning-fork shaped tower and release pulses of red rings into the sky in a large area, making the Jammer easy to spot from a long distance.
In some instances, there can be more than one Stratagem Jammer in a mission. They can be close enough that the radius of another Jammer overlaps and prevents players from calling in a NUX-223 Hellbomb on a disabled Jammer.
Tactics[]
- The Stratagem Jammer has a radius of 150m. This makes it especially problematic if it spawns next to objectives that require a stratagem call down to proceed.
- Due to their tall and distinct spinning radar, Stratagem Jammer bases can easily be seen from a distance, especially in maps flat maps with hills. Spotting them for teammates using the callout button is heavily advised, as this marks them on the map.
Helldivers should stealth their way into the outpost and locate the terminal, which suspiciously displays the Super Earth logo, to deactivate the Stratagem Jammer. Once the Stratagem Jammer is disabled, a NUX-223 Hellbomb can be called in to destroy it.
- Helldivers should especially exercise caution when sneaking inside the outpost. Alerting Automations in the base will make destroying the Strategem Jammer difficult, especially on higher difficulties.
- Stratagem Jammers can no longer be destroyed by destroying the attached Fabricator. In addition to Hellbombs, it can be destroyed with an Eagle 500kg Bomb, or any of the Orbital Artillery Strikes, which would be more prudent to use once a Stratagem Jammer is deactivated, but one is under heavy assault. For optimal results, it is recommended to have the strike land as near to the radar dish as much as possible by placing it on the roof of the building.
- A direct hit from the GP-31_Ultimatum can no longer destroy the Jammer as its damage has been reduced by 1000 in a recent patch.
- Unconventionally, the Stratagem Jammer can also be destroyed with Automaton cannon fire. Either from the Factory Strider, Cannon Tower, or Annihilator Tank, but they have to be baited into shooting the radar. Actually getting the last two to hit, is tricky, but the strider (assuming one is attacking you) is more doable as its tall, dorsal-mounted cannon has enough height to land a direct hit on it.
- The Stratagem Jammer can also be destroyed by a SEAF Artillery strike, surprisingly with any kind of payload. This is one of the easier ways to dispatch of a jammer as SEAF strikes are not disabled within its radius. For optimal results, call in the strike near the radar dish.
- Directing an Orbital Walking Barrage towards the direction of the jammer is an effective tactic of softening up the base before an assault, or destroying it altogether. For this to be effective, the barrage beacon must be thrown at the edge of the jammer field for full coverage.
- Stratagem Jammers can be particularly dangerous when paired with a nearby Detector Tower as the interference with your stratagem means that you have almost no chance of destroying the reinforcements summoned by the Detector Tower. As such, one must be advised to stealthily make their way to the Stratagem Jammer in order to disable the threat.
