RPG's are more of a threat than AA missiles, as they are easier to use, less expensive and more readily available. They might have a very short range in vertical terms, but not many airports have the type of armed security around their perimeter fence to prevent their use.

Combined IR and radar homing jammers are too expensive to fit to most airliners and only El Al have them at present.
