Because no one has a firmer grasp on the vagaries of a rogue nuclear weapons program than an ex-snakeeater.

First time I saw a program on EMPs was 1979. Have they ever been used? Anywhere? Typically, there is a test run. Think German role in the Spanish Civil War. At least I have a nice Astra 400 to commemorate that one.

I understand the theory behind EMPs, but find it difficult to believe they have not been employed to date, if viable on a large scale.


EMP and other power grid attack weapons were used very successfully in Iraq

I saw some AARs from the Balkan that indicated power grids were shorted with graphite droppings from F-22s. Would be interested to see similar primary source reports from Iraq if EMPs were used.

Care to share the facts on those events. I call bullsh*t.
