But the jammer can be plugged in to the grid or a diesel generator. Being on the ground without flight requirements grants access to such resources.

Yes. That makes it fat, expensive and vulnerable target. There are videos of them being blown up regularly.

Which is a completely unrelated to what we were talking about.

How come? It plainly negates the "easy" part. It's not easy at all, you need to scale your signal path to the magnitude of power. I.e. the expensive part.

But such a jammer is expensive and a magnet for HARMs that only need that RF signature as guidance.

How is SEAD unrelated to drone warfare? Unless you believe anti radiation missiles/drones can't target jammers.

The topic was energy expense of wideband vs narrowband jamming.

Both can be used for targeting.
