Re: Faraday Cage.

I’m familiar with both. I also know what happened during some of the tests at the Trestle facility and also what an ungrounded Faraday cage can and can not do.

And it’s not just EMP. Aside from what the purpose built EMP weapons can do, I also recall that when the AGM-86B reached IOC, that when the B-52’s ECM was on, that the AGM-86 ALCM’s onboard computers would shut down. If you wanted to launch cruise missiles, you had to turn the jammers off first.

We’ve got a mode that the F/A-18 can use with it’s radar now, that will kill missile electronics the same way.

What is your opinion of the F-35? Is it stealthy and how manueverable is it? How does it compare to the F-22 and Grippen?
