    Authoritative EMP engineering info

    JIC you haven't seen these unclassified USG docs available on the internet and want to read up:

    Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) Protection and Restoration Guidelines for Equipment and Facilities, with Appendices A-C, v1.0, Dec 22, 2016

    High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) Protection for Ground-Based C4I Facilities Performing Critical Time Urgent Missions, DOD MIL-STD-188-125-1, 17Jul1998

    Very far from my area of expertise, but recall reading a paper sometime ago (?Los Alamos lab abstract perhaps) that the EMP threat is not as malignant as its made out to be...Will research and re-post later.

    Here’s a conference paper from the DOD on EMP-related policy issues based on estimated impacts. Very serious discussion by knowledgeaBle commentators.

    VERY disturbing. I guess ONE SECOND AFTER was right all along.
    The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than the cowards they really are.

    Yet there are still plenty of people who down play the threat that GMD's/CME's/HEMP's/etc. pose to are antiquated power grid.

    The latest, with a commentary article by Bill Gertz, a well respected writer with established electronic warfare credibilty.

    "Several nations, including China and Russia, are building powerful nuclear bombs designed to produce super-electromagnetic pulse (EMP) waves capable of devastating all electronics—from computers to electric grids—for hundreds of miles, according to a newly-released congressional study.

    A report by the now-defunct Commission to Assess the Threat to the United States from EMP Attack, for the first time reveals details on how nuclear EMP weapons are integrated into the military doctrines of China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran"
