    I've read about the 80s Shtora system that's supposed to protect soviet tanks from being targeted by lasers and thought that maybe, considering that every Russian or US solder is equipped with a bunch of high-tech gizmos and linked in a net, they could use that to triangulate the position of the sniper.

      That's exactly what Boomerang and the systems that developed from it do.

      Apparently they may not actually work, though.
