businessinsider | While the U.S. geared up for the second presidential debate last Tuesday, a building sat pulsing with computers, electronic surveillance, and security systems in the Utah high desert. The unoccupied site was awaiting the test of a weapon the Pentagon requested four years ago to the day on 16 October, 2008.
The Counter-Electronics High Power Microwave Advanced Missile Project (CHAMP), led by Boeing's Phantom works, promised to change the face of contemporary warfare, and its test was a complete success.
CHAMP flew over the Utah Test and Training Range
last Tuesday, discharging a burst of High Power Microwaves onto the
test site and brought down the compound's entire spectrum of electronic
systems, apparently without producing any other damage at all. Even the
camera recording the test was shut down.
Struggling to contain his enthusiasm, Boeing's Keith Coleman says,
"We hit every target we wanted to. Today we made science fiction into
science fact." Fist tap Big Don.
