Well... Not sure how much faith to put into this kind of story, but the sad part is that the military could do this kind of R&D - whereas the energy sector could not even think about it due to cost and interference from special interests - so there are scary implications that demonstrate the kind of mess this country in.
Curious that they surmise that the missile payload is a "super-powerful microwave" oven. Geeze, why not use that kind of power supply for LENR, or hot fusion, or subcritical fission - instead of mischief (knocking out a bunch of antique computers)? -----Original Message----- From: Terry Blanton No longer bogosity: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2241525/The-Boeing-blitzing-d rone-cripple-nations-electronics.html "Down the years and across the universe, the heroes of science-fiction classics from Dan Dare to Star Wars and The Matrix have fought intergalactic battles with weapons that wipe out enemy electronics at the touch of a button. Now scientists have turned fantasy into reality by developing a missile that targets buildings with microwaves that disable computers but don't harm people. Aircraft manufacturer Boeing successfully tested the weapon on a one-hour flight during which it knocked out the computers of an entire military compound in the Utah desert."
