Camouflage does nothing if a drone flying above the dish detects the transmission and reports its location. However, using a dish is still much better than other antennas since the radiation is very directional and the drone/plane has to be near the line of sight between the dish and the satellite to detect it.

Not to mention wasting expensive munitions on what would likely be one of many $700 transceivers coupled with repeaters would be an entertaining and expensive game of whack-a-mole.
