Less than one month after an Arabic reporter spills the beans on the use of 'electricity bombs' in Syria, Vladimir Mikheyev, Adviser to the First Deputy CEO of Radio-Electronic Technologies Group (KRET) is reported on the Russian state news agency TASS as saying that the next generation MIG fighter jets will be supported by drones, one of which
"will carry microwave weapons, including guided electronic munitions"
Note the wording order, not 'electronic guided munitions' (the kind that would be quite normal and destined to now be put on other drones) but "guided electronic munitions", i.e. guided electricity weapons. These weapons, would be triggered by specific frequencies of Microwaves after they have been delivered into their targets and that is why the drone that delivers them has the microwave emitters.
These microwave triggered munitions can electrically 'burn' metal holding adversaries, and instantly destroy electronics. People will have to resort to wooden clubs to air their grievances.
The Russians are recognising the new normal (to be) that a manned fighter jet cannot have standard munitions on them since a speed of light weapon can trigger their explosive power before they are deployed (as predicted and described and self-censored by Kenneth Shoulders). It makes perfect sense to have the electricity bombs and standard munitions on drones that act along side the MIG6, so keeping the pilot safe. It also makes sense that the fighter would need lasers to blind conventional incoming guided weapons, since it would be not advisable to have any on board conventional munitions and so this would be the only practical defence.
It's so sad that all inventions first go in destruction, not in human development.
Thanks for sharing!
Knowledge is the key!
Russia had to show their hand, albeit with 'subtlety'. Sometimes you are forced to reveal things you don't want to reveal.
It is more than sad that these things are used for ill first, whilst they milk everyone's life fruits through metered energy.
