A U.S. Army engineer\u2019s idea to turn the standard M4 rifle into an electromagnetic pulse gun recently got the nod from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.<\/p>\n

James E. Burke, electronics engineer at the\u00a0U.S. Army\u2019s Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center, received U.S. patent 10,180,309 on Tuesday, giving the Army intellectual property protections on Burke\u2019s \u201cElectromagnetic Pulse Transmitter Muzzle Adapter.\u201d<\/p>\n

This invention would enable\u00a0a single soldier in a ground unit to destroy enemy electronics, such as small drones or improvised explosive devices, by attaching a special blank-firing adapter to their rifle\u2019s muzzle, then firing a shot.<\/p>\n

The muzzle attachment contains a piezoelectric generator, powered by firing the blank cartridge, which creates an electromagnetic pulse directed by a horn antenna.<\/p>\n

Most of the Army\u2019s directed-energy weapons are large, vehicle-mounted systems. For example, the\u00a0High Energy Laser Mobile Test Truck<\/a>\u00a0is an 8-wheeled behemoth.<\/p>\n

\u201cA need exists for an inexpensive, one-man portable directed energy weapon,\u201d according to the Army patent, which you can download along with Burke\u2019s slides below.<\/p>\n

Troops \u201calready carry rifles. Why not use something that every soldier already carries?\u201d Burke told\u00a0Defense One<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

A prototype has been tested, its effective range has not been disclosed, but Burke indicated that larger caliber ammunition may affect performance.<\/p>\n
