An electromagnetic weapon is a device that uses electromagnetic energy to disrupt or damage electronic systems. These weapons can emit powerful bursts of electromagnetic radiation, which can interfere with the operation of computers, communication systems, and other electronic devices. They are often considered for military applications, where disabling enemy technology can provide a strategic advantage. One common type of electromagnetic weapon is the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) device. An EMP can be generated by nuclear explosions or specialized non-nuclear devices, creating a wave of energy that can incapacitate electronics over a wide area. The potential use of such weapons raises concerns about their impact on civilian infrastructure and national security.
