Is it better than S-band ? Or is it a complement ?
Thx for any help.

Ah not sure, considering it does not carry larger antenna to jam VHF band.

If you knew how this thing works and under what circumstances you would be far more reserved to say at least

This can be done without EA-18 right ? I wonder why should be EA-18 ? HARM capability ? Nah because HARM seeker is still too small to pick VHF wavelength. You may need more conventional means which will of course be met with those who guard the radar like TOR or Pantsyr.

And bomb what? In what way do you intend to find out where is something you want to bomb specially if we are talking about country like Russia?

Still far more than EA-18G. Nebo-M is highly mobile radar complex and it work inside IADS, so there will be quite a lot of S-300, S-400, Tor, Pantsir, etc around as well as fighter planes. Nebo-M is only one very capable element here.

I know that an AESA beast like NEBO series should be difficult to jam (you'd need a lot of power to begin with - before we even mention its frequency agility capability) - but the radars on TOR-M and Tunguska?
You seem to be talking about a lot of AD assets in one spot. how many missiles are carried on a Tor launcher unit, 8? An RAF Tornado can carry up to 12 Brimstone missiles. I don't doubt that that such a dense multi-layered air defence system can be overwhelmed quickly enough with enough decoys and and cheap missiles.

Quite a lot of S-300, S-400, Tor, Pantsir, etc - where?
How many units of S-400 do you think exist in the world and how many short range AD systems are available to protect it?

Right, just throw more aircraft into the grinder - and the victory is yours.They have only got a limited amount of missiles you know.
Actually, there are AA units of the Army with Tors and Buks and Air Defence forces with Pansirs, S-300/400 and AD airforces plus VVS. All those units work in a cooperation.Quite a lot of S-300, S-400, Tor, Pantsir, etc - where?
