Exclusive: Pakistan expresses interest in non-nuclear EMP weapons technolog

Well-informed sources say that Pakistani security officials have expressed interest in the research and development of non-nuclear EMP (electromagnetic pulse) weapons.

Sources privy to the development had earlier shared that a panel of Chinese and Russian experts had met in Moscow to discuss means of collaborating for a giant Asian EMP-shield ('umbrella') that would protect regional airspace, particularly that of Russia and China, from intruding systems.

In this context, Pakistani officials expressed their interest. It is expected that as previously, Pakistan will approach its counterparts in China to map a possible joint R & D venture.

............which will send the CSD planners back to the drawing board-----again----.

Finally some out of box thinking by our decision makers.

 

[fatman17]

we have shown interest in many areas, but will anyone share this tech with us.....

Well when you can't get it build your own.

 

[bigzgvr4]

there is step by step on how to produce a non nuclear emp device on YOu tube But you tube is banned in pakistan

the guy uses coils and a loaded capacitor,

You can do the same but at a bigger scale inside the missile or a dilevery system

AND BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING JUST LOOK UP THE VIDEO THAT GUY DISSABLES ANY ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT IN ITS RANGE

AND ONLY WAY TO PROTECT FROM EMP IS DIAMOND OR PURE CARBON BASED ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

Pakistan already posseses,the Strategic EMP which is useless against India as it will send us back to the stone age too,as an EMP knows not and cares not about borders.

Tactical EMP is a wild goose everyone's chasing as it truly is a miracle weapon,especially from our perspective while keeping CSD in mind.

Imagine what a low flying Babur cruise missile carrying a tactical EMP device instead of a warhead can do to specific military target,situated in almost 50% of Indian territory,without harming a single civilian.

This,indeed is a smart investment.

The range of NNEMP weapons (non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse bombs) is far less than nuclear EMP. Nearly all NNEMP devices used as weapons require chemical explosives as their initial energy source, producing one millionth the energy of nuclear explosives of similar weight.

This so called giant Asian NNEMP-shield or EMP 'umbrella' would require enormous amounts of energy in the form of chemical explosives - tons of it - exploded high in the atmosphere to neutralize a specific area. It's not cost effective and most of the electronic circuits in military hardware nowadays are hardened and therefore will not be fried by an EMP.

It's a pretty dumb idea which has been doing the rounds since the early '50s. And it has already cost billions of dollars in research. Will the not-so-rich countries be ably to afford this?
