British media: US secretly deployed "humane" CHAMP microwave missiles to counter Iran
"The US has secretly deployed "humane" CHAMP microwave missiles to counter Iran. But where exactly these weapons are deployed is not reported.
American journalist Ronald Kessler writes about this in his article for the British newspaper Daily Mail.
British media clarifies that CHAMP microwave missiles are capable of destroying any electronics, including electronic equipment of Iranian nuclear facilities. It is exposed to microwaves, which, the author claims, are harmless to people. Kessler states that the application of this weapons will be able to disable many of Iran's strategic facilities, including nuclear ones. In this case, casualties can be completely avoided.
The Americans began deploying such missiles in various parts of the planet in 2019.
The microwave equipment used to defeat electronics is built into air-launched cruise missiles and carried to the launch site by B-52 strategic bombers. CHAMP's range exceeds 1100 kilometers.
Such missiles are capable of flying into enemy airspace at low altitude and “frying” computer chips, rendering any electronic devices useless without causing collateral damage. The microwave pulse causes a sharp surge in voltage, which damages the equipment before the protection can operate.
It is extremely difficult to detect and destroy such a missile, since along the way it disables enemy radars. He, the author claims, does not even have the opportunity to understand why his electronics suddenly stopped working."
