You mean they copied what was developed at Dahlgren Surface Warfare Center.
I think some of our political elites sold it them.
Big deal, I made one out of some electromagnets made from wooden spools, copper wire, and a pencil as a projectile when I was in grade school 40+ years ago.
The engineering problems and questions involved in making a _practical_ gun are big. How large are the capacitors? How long do they last? Where does the power to charge them come from? How long does the barrel last? What does the cooling system look like? What happens if “something goes wrong” with the control electronics (hint: the energy has to go...somewhere)... so, having one in a lab shoot one time vs having one that can shoot at least several times a minute that is reasonably portable, maintainable, and relatively safe to the operators are two different things.
Developed by BAE Systems first and foremost.

More likely they stole the design. US cyber securty is a joke.
maybe so,
But at least their leader is willing to use this kind of crap against the crazy mooselimbs,
as opposed to out “leader” who is afraid to play battleship in the bathtub.
