electromagnetic weapons emit an electromagnetic beam, allowing the enemy and instantly felt the heat intolerable
the rubber bullets which are the most common non-lethal weapons a few days ago
the U.S. a new weapon unveiled emit an electromagnetic beam, and let the enemy instantly feel the unbearable heat, which is the latest U.S. non-lethal weapons research and development. These are called “more humane” weapons companies and government to promote R & D increasingly accelerated pace. However, there are a lot of people questioned, non-lethal weapons is not what people thought it would be safe, and may even worsen the conflict.
see less can not hear, but you have to Run
In recently
, the U.S. military direction of media exposes a new type of non-lethal weapon. The new weapons can emit a strong electromagnetic wave beam, Watch the enemy in the form of waves. When the beam to reach the enemy, the other will suddenly feel that I do not know where to strong sense of unbearable heat.
power display in the media, the U.S. Marine Corps Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Authority Ta Fula such a description of such weapons: “You can not see it, hear it, smell does not to it, but you can feel it. “
media reporters at the show did try the power of new weapons, reported that the effect of the attack is very distasteful, instinctively The reaction is to run away.
this electromagnetic beam is called “Active Denial System.” Ta Fula, said electromagnetic beam is not only powerful, but the range is very far, and some can reach about 1000 meters, known as “the safest non-lethal weapons” have been developed for 15 years. In 2010, such weapons have a brief war in Afghanistan deployment, but never really used in military combat.
It is learned that the reason why shelved for so many years before a public of this technology may be because there are many people worried about their safety, some people who confuse this electromagnetic wave and microwave electromagnetic waves.
Air Force Research Laboratory inMiller is responsible for the measurement of the biological effects of radio frequencies. She stressed that such weapons would create the sense of extreme discomfort, but it does not mean it really harmful. She explained that this radio wave frequency is 95 GHz, this frequency, the body is only “superficially” absorption of electromagnetic waves. “We do 11,000 times human exposure experiment, only two damage in need of medical attention, and it damages the two are back to normal.”
researcher Diana Luo Li said, compared to under the microwave frequency about 1 GHz, and the speed faster, through the ability to also stronger, so the meat cooked.
Li Luo stressed that such a transmitter of electromagnetic waves emitted frequency is 100 times that of ordinary microwave oven microwave frequencies, even a box of popcorn is heated, there is not enough penetration, and therefore can not make material inside of the heat.
for this new non-lethal weapons, the U.S. military to consider a variety of purposes such as riot to disperse, denial of border controls, border security, regional, infrastructure protection. The
, enter the new century weapons gentle up
including the Active Denial System “, including, now, more and more non-lethal weapons in the scene of various conflicts. Such as water cannons, tear gas, stink bombs, rubber bullets, soft batons, pepper spray, electric batons and so on.
non-lethal weapons, the basic idea is to not hurt the enemy, but the power to drive out or deter the enemy. Since the beginning of the new century, its development to become the new hot spot in the global arms race.
At present, the use of non-lethal weapons projects trying to develop weapons to clear the buildings in the population, control individuals and groups, even in high altitude aircraft. Mandel, Lewis and Clark College in the United States international relations scholars, said the U.S. government is non-lethal weapons on the go all out, “they believe that this allows the conflict to become more rational, and reduce people’s war dead bodies all over the phenomenon of questioning.”
1996, U.S. Department of Defense established the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Project, the development between shouting and shooting weapons. The establishment of this project has greatly promoted the enthusiasm of the military non-lethal weapons development.
2001, the U.S. Navy announced it is developing the “Active Denial System, that has openly microwave gun. Such weapons use electromagnetic waves to heat the object, and a great deal of discomfort, but will not cause harm, but it can make the skin temperature of the target for 2 seconds to jump to 54 ℃.
In addition to the electromagnetic waves outside of the U.S. military has also developed a variety of acoustic weapons, and some emit very low frequency, so that the head of the object being attacked unbearable sound. In addition, there are some “Strobe” gun through the strobe beam, so an attacker to produce dizziness and nausea.
the beginning of this year, a high-tech arms companies revealed that U.S. police will soon be using laser guns used by the military in Iraq and Afghanistan. Launch such weapons out of the green laser pulse, it will temporarily blind people, this will be the first time the United States approved the use of laser weapons in the non-military law enforcement. It is reported that more than other non-lethal weapons, such as rubber bullets and other harmful smaller.
weapons is gentle but the conflict may become more
supporters of non-lethal weapons, these high-tech can reduce the number of deaths. However, some people questioned this view.
theOpponents claimed that the use of non-lethal weapons may actually increase the number of deaths. U.S. Department of Justice statistics, in the hostage-taking incident, the police use of stun guns, the number of deaths of the abductees have “significant growth”.
“If your child has been abducted, and you are willing to rescue the police with what kind of weapons?” The U.S. military Joint Special Operations University researchers Alexander said.
non-lethal weapons, security has also been questioned. In the United States, stun guns have been used for over a decade, can generate 50,000 volts of the electrode, so that the object instantly lose the ability to act. However, some human rights organizations that the United States there have been a lot of “Vertigo” after the death of the cases, the manufacturer, the Taser International is saddled with as many as 33 cases of personal injury lawsuit.
also concerns about police abuse of military weapons. White, Leeds Metropolitan University, UK security experts believe that large-scale development of non-lethal weapons may lead to the police “army” and the misuse of weapons. “Non-lethal weapons will lead to the deterioration of the conflict, in turn, prompted security forces to use more powerful weapons.”
there are military experts pointed out that the use of non-lethal weapons in the war to reduce casualties may be an illusion. They believe that non-lethal weapons, although it may be the mortality rate in the battle will minimize, but will extend the entire war, are more likely involved in a war society a tremendous psychological impact, be more unexpected conflict. In addition, non-lethal weapons so-called “security” may also lead to more non-related countries “interventionist”, to participate in the war.
“I actually agree with the statement of the American Civil War General Robert Lee, he said, war is bloody and terrible is a good thing, so that people will do everything possible to avoid its appearance.” Mandel said. Gold yu
