Demand for directional EMP machines is going to skyrocket.
Okay I’m interested. Is this theoretically possible? What does one need to counter something like this?
This can be countered with an object to block the path of the directed sound wave. Something like a clipboard or a garbage can lid would help a lot.
A concave object could redirect the sound to the operator.
Parabolic reflector would be best, send it back to the Nazis
Seems like a concave, acoustically reflective surface works best at redirecting the pressure waves. I think this video is really well made, Benn Jordan doesn’t mince words and goes in depth. Should give you a good idea of what you can expect and how to effectively counter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sqIvak-4Ek
Heh yeah I went down the rabbit hole last night and stumbled upon his video. Always liked his content, his recent videos as well as his music back in the 2010s.
Directional EMP is absolutely possible, but generating a predictable, controllable EMP without a nuclear device is hard. Especially if you want the device generating it to be used more than once.
Yeah that’s kind of what I was getting at. The amount of energy required would be too large and impracticable/impossible to be leveraged in a portable form factor for use in the field, such as the video example.
