WHAT IS AN E-BOMB?
E-BOMB overwhelms electrical circuitry with intense electromagnetic field.

ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE THEORY:

EMPs produced by nuclear weapons with ever diminishing intensity, have
changing magnetic fields which couple with electrical circuitry to produce
damge currents/voltage surges.

FLUX
COMPRESSION
GENERATOR(FCG) is
the most important
and the
fundamental
method used for
such arsenal.

Consists : Metal cylinder (called the

armature), surrounded by a coil of wire (the
stator winding). The armature cylinder is
filled with high explosive, and a sturdy jacket
surrounds the entire device.

The stator winding and the armature

cylinder are separated by empty space
or insulator. The bomb also has a power
source, such as a bank of capacitors,
which is connected to the stator.

Events series when the bomb goes off:

Capacitors connects to Stator sets electrical current through

wires Generates Intense Magnetic Field.
Fuze mechanism ignites the explosive material Explosion travels
as wave through the middle of the armature cylinder.

 Explosion passes through cylinder Cylinder comes

in
contact with stator winding creates a short circuit
cuts the stator off from its power supply.
Moving short circuit compresses Magnetic Field
generates Intense Electromagnetic burst.

DAMAGE ON ELECTRONICS EQUIPMENTS

Intense electromagnetic pulse corrupts computer data
powerful bursts would completely fry electric and electronic
equipment.

E-BOMB COULD NEUTRALIZE

Vehicle control systems, targeting systems, communications systems, navigation
systems, long and short-range sensor systems

EFFECT ON HUMAN BEINGS

Use Of Pacemaker Or Any Other Electronic Implant.

Vulnerability Reduction
(Hardening):
Convert computer rooms in to Faraday cages
Use optical fibres for data
Isolate power feeds with transient arrestors
Use non-electrical power feed schemes
Use electromagnetic air lock
Shielding must be comprehensive

KILL ASSESSMENT

E-bomb is a WEMD
High payoff in using E-bombs against
fundamental infrastructure, resulting in
substantial paralysis
E-bombs will become a decisive capability
in Strategic Warfare and Electronic Combat
E-bombs are a non-lethal weapon
The critical issues for the next decade are
the deployment of E-bombs and the
hardening of fundamental infrastructure
