That's the bird. Nasty and lethal. Jan, if you're introducing a black program-type strike aircraft, this'd be a good one to use.

Hey Jan Does the Mk. 84 package E-bomb exist beyond just speculation that it was used in 1991. With a 500m footprint, a few of those might be what the doctor ordered for a few targets. Just a thought.

The US military may not be aware that the Statue of Liberty was collateral damage, and the public probably doesn't care. On the other hand, NATO commanders might decide that if the destruction of the...

I know how you feel, I was going to do the Mexican War division by division, I realize that that's too big, so I have to cut that down a bit.

On a related note, I don't thing the RAH-66 has been expressly mentioned yet. It is around. It is in the process of replacing OH-58Ds and the remaining AH-1s.

Here's a link to info on an E-bomb. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/report/1996/apjemp.htm Even states how it can be used in each mission and on targets.

Interesting article, there's a good essay on 'HEMP' and its effects here. I would imagine that the effects generated by a theoretical 'E-bomb' would be similar.

That's the thing, is it theoretical? Evidence suggests that one was used in the Gulf War in 1991 to shutdown Iraq's state radio and television center.

The problem for me is that the evidence is not 100% clear. If the E-bomb exists then it is still very secret, which means we can't verify its effects. Modern military electronics are also hardened...
