 INTRODUCTION

- E-Bombs are weapons of electrical mass

destruction

- Can damage wide range of electrical &

electronics equipments i.e. computers, radios,
radar, wires or PCBs etc.

-they use of non-nuclear confrontation.

- using principle of EMP effect.

- It has combination of both electric and

magnetic fields.
 History

First observed during the early

testing of high altitude airburst
nuclear weapons.
Then FCG is built and tested in US,
and then in USSR
And more recently in CIS.
 BASIC PRINCIPLE
Work on principle of EMP method
EMP stands for: Electromagnetic Pulses.
They very strong pulses.
They has short lived transient voltages of
thousands of volts.
Its effects on the circuitry of other
semiconductor electronics equipments (i.e.
MOS).
Due to over power the device damages.
All types of receivers and communication
equipments are highly vulnerable.
 Concept of EMP
It is an electromagnetic pulse.
Produces a powerful
electromagnetic fields (i.e. in
kilovolts).
Due to powerful fields it cause
wide damage of electronics
appliances.
The EMP is in effect an
electromagnetic shock wave.
 Technology based for E-bomb
It is based on Explosively Pumped Flux
Compression Generator.
Introduction to Flux Compression Generator

It is a type of generator for producing EMP.

It is the most mature technology
applicable to bomb.
FCG is a device capable of producing
electrical energies of about tens of Mega
joules in ten to hundreds of microseconds.
It has peak power kevels of the order of
Terawatts to tens of Terawatts.
 Working of FCG
Producing a pulse of electric current of order of ten of kilo
Amperes to Mega Amperes.
It has cylindrical copper tubes of armature.
This tube is filled with a fast high energy explosive.
Armature is surrounded by a helical coil of heavy wire.
Which forms the FCG stator.
The start current is supplied by an external current source.
Such as a high voltage capacitor bank.
So by this a intense magnetic field is produced during this
operation.
So in this method using a fast explosive into the magnetic
field.

 Targeting E-Bomb
The task of identifying targets for attack with E-
Bomb is complex.
Targets which can be readily identified through
conventional photographic, satellite, image
radar and human operation.
These targets are typically geographically fixed
and thus may de attacked providing that
aircraft can penetrate to weapon release range.
For accuracy GPS/initially guided weapons can
be used.

Advantages of E-bomb
Permanent damages the electrical
appliances such as computers and micro
processor devices.
Easy to diffuse or to destroy the missiles.
Destroys the communication system.
It can even stop working of generator or
cars.
Easy to handle and target.
 Limitation
It must be noted that thermionic
technology i.e. vacuumed tube
equipment is substantially more resilient
to the electromagnetic weapons.
So no damages to the thermionic
technology devices.
