    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    Well NASA described it as powerful, so that’s good enough for me. Remote region of Canada? It was the entire province of Quebec, almost 2.5x the size of Texas, almost 3x the size of France. Not sure how they feel about being “remote”, Quebec City, Montreal and all that. Can it happen? Of...

    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    I don't really see that as making the case. An our long HF blackout, no matter how extensive, doesn't strike me as armageddon. As far as a "grid ending" solar CME, it's already happened. In 1989 one of the largest known ejections in modern history knocked the entire province of Quebec off...

    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    I've said my bit on this subject, and since it's not my money being spent, more power to whomever. I've done enough research to be satisfied that an EMP attack is so low on the list of things to worry about as to not even be an issue. Research that didnt come from websites with Prep, Survive...

    Its not the EMP that will get you, it’s the significant nuclear blast needed to generate an EMP strong enough to actually kill a vehicle. If it’s close enough and big enough to kill your vehicle, it’s going to kill you in it.

    If it’s strong enough to affect vehicles in any serious way it’ll likely kill YOU outright.

    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    I'm down with the spares, though on this particular ride I haven't gotten to that point yet. I'm still at the point of replacing, if I can just get the TIME these days.

    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    I figured one example is enough. The Carrington event, just like the one I mentioned in Canada, is not the type of EMP pulse that is going to burn out electronics. It takes out large electrical grids. Those with miles and miles and miles of wire, which act like a sponge to absorb the energy...

    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    The Gub'ment wouldn't even wait for it to "pop". An ICBM designed specifically for an EMP strike would be indistinguishable from a standard nuclear attack. IOW, WWIII has already started. Plus EMP events are some of the most over-hyped "problems" in the survival circles. Problem 1 I just...
