Comment Re:... technology dating back to Tesla ... (Score 1) 196

The thing about Tesla technology is that the effects diminish with the square of the distance from the discharge.

This is quite dramatic in the case of an atomic blast...

In the real world unless you are talking about very sensitive equipment with large antenna the range for tesla discharge is not very impressive.

I bet there are some nasty directional narrow beam weapons that have been developed but not yet declassified out there though.
