>From the article, the damage to the electronics is permanent. My understanding is that the intense MW EM induces large voltage transients inside the ICs, probably causing dielectric breakdown or discharges inside it, ultimately 'frying the chip'.
Oh, the Al-foil hats are for my computers, test equipment and cell phone, not me! ;-) -Mark From: David Roberson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2012 9:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Vo]:oops Your suggestion to put on the aluminum hats begs a few questions. What is the instantaneous output power of the emitter? How many joules of energy would be deposited into that hat of yours due to this device? Is the damage to the electronics permanent or does it just cause a reset? If the damage is permanent, why? I could think of many more questions, but I have a feeling that there are going to be few answers submitted.

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."
