High Power Radio Frequency/Microwave (HPM) Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) An introduction to High Power Radio Frequency/Microwave (HPM) Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) and their effects. The webinar will cover what HPM weapons are, the type of weapons – Narrowband and Wideband, how the weapons are like, but different from traditional Electronic Warfare (EW) and Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP), how the HPM energy couples in to a target’s electronics and their effects. We will also cover some of the basic modeling and simulation tools for computing estimating the probability of target failure as a function of weapon power density and range. Finally, we will show an example of how to determine hardening requirements for a notional helicopter against an HPM weapon.

Chapter News
On April 25, the Billy Mitchell Chapter hosted Harrison Hancock-Torres, an engineer from Southwest Research Institute, who gave a briefing on modularity and the various open systems standards. The crowd was composed of traditional chapter members and several young potential Crows from units at Lackland Air Force Base. Based on the quality of Harrison's briefing, the question and answer period was long with several requests for his briefing. He made the multiple open system standards (e.g., CMOSS, SOSA, etc.) Understandable and interesting by giving common everyday examples. Chapter President Ray "Flair" Reyes presided and thanked Harrison for his outstanding presentation.
