EMFC Explosive Magnetic Flux Compressor

POPULAR MECHANICS estimates a basic weapon could be built for $400.

"Any nation with even a 1940s technology base could make them," says Carlo Kopp, an Australian-based expert on high-tech warfare. "The threat of E-bomb proliferation is very real."

ABSTRACT
The efficient attack against modern industrial opponent will require the use of electromagnetic pulse weapons

Found the above to be the best summed up way of showing some of you who don't read everything, what the soon to be linked site, covers and explains in what I will say, is the best the net can get, on this particular subject. Nothing new by any means however, probably not better covered else where on the net.

So how long until hand held, and man portable versions become a threat?
With the "black outs", from a couple years back, it makes one wonder. Considering many people won't see the full picture or believe what is said, until hindsight sets in. Not a bad read over all, I would suggest it to any one who enjoys the topic of electro magnetics and such.
