I only have one question: How did a weapon as cool as this one get past the Obama Regime's anti-military dragnet?:
The Air Force has reportedly picked Lockheed Martin’s long-range Joint Air-to-Surface Missile to carry a new “superweapon’ – a pulse-generated beam weapon capable of destroying electronics and computers from miles away.
Major-General Thomas Masiello of the the Air Force Research Laboratory says the technology, known as CHAMP — for Counter-electronics High-powered microwave Advanced Missile Project — can destroy electronic equipment with bursts of high-power microwave energy, Flight Global reports.
The technology will be "miniaturized" to fit the Lockheed missile, Flight Global reports.
This revolutionary development in weaponry, right out of a Star Trek episode, could radically change warfare, experts say....
By dramatically recovering and enhancing U.S. technological (at least) military superiority, yes. Which is why Barack Obama will cancel it, and probably why Major-General Masiello was ordered to go out and publicly spill the beans in the first place.
This will be the Regime's SOP cover:
But there are also fears the project could trigger a strong reaction from U.S. competitors like China and Russia.
"Should the [United States] be known to have developed such a technology to the production stage, it would drive others to try to act similarly," according to Trevor Taylor of the Royal United Services Institute, the Daily Mail reports.
As if only our developing an EMP missile first could possibly motivate our enemies to develop and deploy and use their own. And as if Moscow and Beijing haven't already stolen this technology and done precisely that, courtesy of their friend in the White House.
Hey, O is indirectly arming the Islamic State and Iran, and sold arms to all kinds of bad actors at twice the rate the Bush Administration ever did. Why would the CHAMP system be any different?
