kalo nggak salah ingat, bukan untuk disabling electronic device, tapi untuk disabling personil / deterrent. mungkin mirip seperti LRAD, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_range_acoustic_device. bacaan lainnya tentang senjata sonic ada di http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_weaponry. kalau di game dune, itu ada sonic tank, lalu di tintin ada senjata rahasia buatan profesor kalkulus yang juga berdasarkan sonic wave. kalau untuk disabling electronic device, ya mestinya pakai EMP, yang bisa dihasilkan dengan ledakan nuklir. ataukah yang dimaksud adalah yang ini (mirip dalam hal seukuran truk): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_weaponry#Sonic_weapons_in_the_news Sonic weapons in the news The U.S. DOD has demonstrated phased arrays of infrasonic emitters. The weapon usually consists of a siren that sounds at about 7Hz. The output from the siren's interrupter is routed (by pipes) to an array of open emitters, which are usually one wavelength apart. At this frequency, armor and concrete walls and other common building materials vibrate, and therefore provide no defense. The frequency is chosen to be near the resonant frequency of internal organs, causing illness, deafness, and internal injuries. The resulting weapon is the size of a truck, fragile, shoots at the speed of sound, and has a substantially shorter range than missiles or artillery shells. Shells move faster than the speed of sound, so artillery can win by shooting after the infrasonic weapon turns on, but before the sound arrives. Also, mechanical "diode walls" to convert the oscillating air into a steady flow have been demonstrated. Although not common at this time, they could be mass-produced and would provide an effective countermeasure. Luxury cruise ship "Seabourn Spirit" employed an LRAD, a commercial type of a sonic weapon, in an attempt to repel pirates who attacked 160 km off the coast of Somalia in early November 2005. -- I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good, http://data.startrek.or.id things left unsaid, http://ryosaeba.wordpress.com
