Emp Bombs May Be Delivered By Any Tactical Aircraft Equipped For Loft Bombing Delivery, Much Like Nuclear Weapons. The Combination Of A Strategic Strike Platform Such As The F-111, Supported By Tankers, And Armed With Emp Bombs, Provides The Ability To Cripple An Opponent's Economy And Air Defence System From A Substantial Distance. This Can Provide Substantial Political Leverage At A Very Low Economic And Political Cost, And Is Thus A Potent Tool In The Arsenal Of Any Modern Air Force. (Defence Pr)

Emp – the Emerging Electromagnetic Threat
EMP or Electro Magnetic Pulse is the next great weapon to evolve in modern warfare. Traditionally associated with nuclear weapons, EMP is about to cross the divide between strategic nuclear and conventional tactical weapons, thus adding a new dimension to the conduct of strategic air warfare as we know it. EMP weapons can effectively, if not defended against, render all electronic equipment in a targeted area permanently dead. An EMP weapon used against military installations and equipment will kill communications equipment and computers, causing irreversible damage to the delicate semiconductor devices which are the heart of modern military machinery, or entire civilian economies, for that matter.
