Subject: RE: Magnetic Defense Complex protects from Artificial Electromagn
etic Waves
Monday has always been a bit dull until now!
We are not going to try out the skin "cream" - we like our engineers to LOOK
mature.
Rumour has it that EM waves can be used to degrade explosives (as they can
also cause explosives to explode).
Some say that this is why 22/7 in the UK failed when the explosives just
fizzled produced clouds of smoke.
On the other hand - some of us think we know better. ;-o

Would a chain mail suit be proof against 95GHz or would the RF get through the
gaps between the links?
Regards
Tim
I was one of the conspirators that wrote the theory. :-)
A while ago, I tried doing some "brute force" illumination of model rocket
igniter squibs with a 200 kW X-band pulse source. While you can make some
things "happen", it isn't a trivial task.
