MILITARY AND POLITICAL ASPECTS OF ONE OF THE PROBLEMS OF THE MODERN POWER INDUSTRY
The problem of Intentional Destructive Electromagnetic Impacts (IDEI) on power systems has become recently more and more actual in connection with two modern trends: the extension of using microelectronics and microprocessor-based devices and systems in electric power industry - on the one hand, and the intensive design of special equipment for distance destruction of electronic devices and systems - with another. The most powerful method for such destruction is the High-altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) as a result of a high-altitude nuclear explosion. The history of experimental high-altitude nuclear explosions has been known now for over half a century. During this time quite a few scientific articles and books presenting details of this phenomenon and measures of protection from it have been published. In view of this fact, it would be possible to assume that the problem ofprotection against HEMP has been solved for a long time and modern power systems are well protected from this phenomenon. However the research performed by the author displays that actually it has not and for the past decades in one country of the world, at least, no practical measures have been taken for the protection of the national infrastructures against HEMP and all action has been restricted only to writing reports, recommendations and guidelines. In the paper the reasons for such situation (in particular, political and military aspects of the problem) are analyzed. References 50, figures 5.
Key words: High-altitude Electromagnetic Pulse, Intentional Destructive Electromagnetic Impacts, power system, national infrastructure.
Проблема преднамеренных дистанционных деструктивных воздействий (ПДДВ) на энергетические системы становится в последнее время все более и более актуальной в связи с двумя современными тенденциями: расширением использования микроэлектроники и устройств на основе микропроцессоров в электроэнергетике - с одной стороны, и успехами, достигнутыми в разработке специальных видов оружия, предназначенных для дистанционного поражения электронных устройств - с другой. Самый мощный метод дистанционного поражения электроники - электромагнитный импульс высотного ядерного взрыва (ЭМИ ЯВ). История экспериментальных высотных ядерных взрывов насчитывает половину столетия. За это время было опубликовано множество научных статей, книг, отчетов, подробно описывающих все детали этого процесса и меры защиты от него. В связи с этим, можно было бы предположить, что проблема защиты от ЭМИ ЯВ была за эти десятилетия успешно решена и современные электроэнергетические системы хорошо защищены от этого явления. Однако, исследование, выполненное автором, показывает, что ни в одной стране мира до сих пор не были предприняты никакие практические меры защиты национальных инфраструктур от ЭМИ ЯВ и все действия были ограничены только докладами, отчетами, рекомендациями. В данной статье проанализированы причины такой ситуации (в частности, политические и военные аспекты проблемы). Библ. 50, рис. 5.

«...our vulnerability is increasing daily as our use of and dependence on electronics continues to grow in both our civil and military sectors»
Dr. William R. Graham, EMP Commission's Chairman
Introduction. The possibility using special weapons that can destroy an electric power system and other important elements of national infrastructure without a direct impact on a person is very alluring as it can result in a collapse of the whole country. Moreover, people responsible for decision-making about weapon employment cannot be charged for the indiscriminate killing of civilians, since this type of weapon does not impact on people directly. This type of weapon is represented by systems, which generate extra-powerful electromagnetic fields knocking electronic and electrically powered equipment out of service.
The problem of Intentional Destructive Electromagnetic Impacts (IDEI) impact on electric power systems has only recently become extremely relevant due to two modern trends: expanded use of micro-electronics and micro-processor equipment in the electric power industry on the one hand, and the intensive development of means for remote destruction of electronic instruments on the other hand [1]. Furthermore, the problem is relevant not
only to such solely civilian fields as the electric power industry, but also to military personnel as military facilities and ranges receive electric energy and water from the civilian systems, serious malfunctioning of which would inevitably affect the defense condition of an army with all its armament systems protected from IDEI.
Brief Historical Background. The devastating impact of a remote nuclear explosion on electronic equipment was discovered during the initial trials of this new (for that time) type of weapon. Later on, theoretic substantiation of a High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) of a nuclear explosion was found in the academic works of Nobel Prizewinner for physics Arthur Compton, dating back to 1922. Military men have quickly appreciated the advantage of using this phenomenon as a weapon that can destroy the infrastructure and electric power systems of a rival at one go. The first attempts to study HEPM were conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission and the Nuclear Safety Agency of the US Department of Defense on July 9, 1962 (the project encoded «Starfish Prime»). A thermo-nuclear warhead missile with a capacity of 1.44 Mega-tons was launched from a US military range located on Johnston Attol between Marshall and Hawaii Islands in Pacific Ocean. It reached

the height of 450 km and was deliberately exploded. This trial was one out of five high altitude nuclear explosions aimed at studying HEMP in the USA in 1962 within the framework of a more extensive project encoded «Operation Fishbowl». During these trials powerful electro-magnetic pulses were registered, which could vastly affect electronic equipment, communication and overhead transmission lines, radio transmission station and radars. They even knocked out street lighting in Hawaii, which is located about 1,500 km from the center of explosion [2].
In 1962 (on October 22, October 28 and November 1) the Soviet Union also conducted a series of high altitude nuclear explosions (each with a capacity of 300 kt) under the project called «Project-К» - K3-184; K4-187 and K5-195 - the aim of which was to study the HEMP phenomenon. The warhead missiles were launched from the Kapustin Yar missile launchpad in the Astrakhan region and were deliberately exploded at the heights of 60 - 290 km above the territory of the military range in the Sary-Shagan, Karaganda region, Kazakhstan (a restricted access territorial subdivision Priozyorsk). In the USSR, the research of HEMP and preparation of those nuclear test explosions were conducted by Central Institute of Physics and Technology of Federal Ministry of Defense - CIPT (military unit 51105 or Central R&D Institute-12) in Ser-giyev Posad, Moscow (now - Federal State Institution «12 Central R&D Institute of MoD of Russian Federation»). During one of these trials (K3-184) impulse current of up to 3400 A was registered in aerial telephone line cables, which resulted in an emerging of pulse voltage with an amplitude of up to 28 kV; actuation of all the arresters installed in the equipment and blowing of all the fuses accompanied by shutdown of communication system; damage of radio communication systems located 600 km away from the center of explosion; outage of a radio stations located 1000 km away; damage of transformers and power generators at power plants; insulator punctures of overhead transmission lines (fig. 1). Serious damage of equipment was also reported at Baikonur Cosmodrome. It should be noted that this refers to equipment manufactured in 1960s, i.e., the one using electromechanical elements and vacuum tubes, which is much more resistant to IDEI than modern digital and micro-processor based equipment.
Fig. 1. Illustration of equipment damages caused by high-altitude HEMP impact above Kazakhstan in 1962. For the first time the picture was presented in English during the EUROEM conference by the Head of Central R&D Institute-12, Major General, Prof. Dr. Mr. V.M. Loborev in France in 1994 [3]
Moreover, both American and Soviet researchers used thermo-nuclear explosives the electromagnetic pulse of which appeared to be 3-5 fold weaker than that emerg-
ing upon detonation of a ordinary nuclear explosive of the same capacity.
The first valid information about HEMP and methods of protection in electric power industry. It is
obvious that due to complexity, importance and high costs of test nuclear explosions the information about them was strictly confidential, so the first users of this information were military specialists. It is speculated that the first disclosure of such information dates back to the «Pere-stroyka» era, when it was presented by the Head of Central Physical and Technical Institution of the Ministry of Defense Major General Mr. V.M. Loborev during his reknowned speech at the EUROEM Conference in France in 1994. However, this is not true. It appears that the first publications of detailed and authentic evidence of HEMP parameters and its impact on the country's infrastructure, in particular the power supply systems, date back to late 60s - early 70s of the last century. In other words this information has already been in public domain for 40-50 years [4-23]. Moreover, some of these publications, (for instance [16, 18]) also contain description of protection measures against HEMP impact. The majority of these sources were published in the USA, so a conclusion can be made that the USA achieved unbeatable results in the field of protection of the most important components of their national infrastructure from HEMP over the last half of the century. Furthermore, the army should also be interested in this.
The actual state of the art in the field of protection of power systems from HEMP and other types of IDEI.
«You can fool all the people some of the time;
and some of the people all the time; but you cannot fool all the people all the time».
Abraham Lincoln
So, what is really happening in the USA and in the world in terms of protection of electric power industry and other extremely important systems constituting the country's infrastructure from IDEI impact? Perhaps, many things are happening based on the quantity of both governmental and private entities dealing with this problem, which are financed from the country's budget at least in the USA. Here is the list of some of them:
• Metatech Corp.;
• Department of Homeland Security (DHS);
• EMP Commission of Congress;
• North American Electric Reliability Corp. (NERC);
• Department of Energy;
• Department of Defense (DoD);

Doesn’t it seem suspicious that so many organizations from only one country are taking an active part in the subject supported by a huge number of published articles during the last decades and having no «white spots», which need to be further investigated? It appeared that the IDEI topic and particularly HEMP is nothing else than a wonderful «long-playing» tool of «bugging» the State budget. And it looks like nobody wants the «bugging» process to be finished by some certain actions aimed at the protection of electric power systems. To support this let me cite one of the former authorities of the US Ministry of Defense Dr. Ashton Carter: «The Army, Navy and Strategic Command continue to think about thinking about the problem». Dr. Peter Vincent Pry, director of the Task Force on National and Homeland Security said more specifically on this topic: «The problem is not the technology. We know how to protect against it. It’s not the money, it doesn’t cost that much. The problem is the politics. It always seems to be the politics that gets in the way«. In his book called «Apocalypse Unknown» (fig. 2), Dr. Pry complains at the fact that the situation is much better in some other countries (Israel, UK and Russia) compared to the USA, because they've already started the realization of some practical steps towards protection of electric systems.
Let us calm Dr. Pry down. He doesn't need to be worried about the lagging of the USA. In actuality the situation in this area in, say, Russia is much worse than that in the USA, since the electric engineers there either didn't hear about the problem at all, or treat it as «Gure-vich's horror stories» (as the only author writing on this topic in the Russian language literature is the author of this article). The situation is not better in other countries. So, it becomes clear why nothing specific has been done anywhere in the world regarding protection of electric
power industry from IDEI and why all the efforts are limited by multi-page reports about investigations, presentations, workshops, conferences and other types of pleasant leisure in a circle of colleagues. The fact is that those multiple «participants of the process» are not interested in finishing the long-term investigation process, but prefer to keep the topic «afloat» in order to receive governmental financial proceeds.

Fig. 2. The book by F. Michael Maloof «A Nation Forsaken», devoted to description of bureaucratic and political games regarding the IDEI problem in the USA (left) and the book by Peter Vincent Pry «Apocalypse Unknown» (right)
This problem is discussed in the book of former Pentagon analyst Michael Maloof. «A Nation Forsaken» (fig. 2). The above mentioned Peter Vincent Pry also writes about serious bureaucratic hurdles related to this topic in his book called «Apocalypse Unknown».
Representatives of the powerful Military-Industrial Complex (as president Eisenhower referred to it) also contribute to delaying the realization of well-known specific measures aimed at protection of electric power systems from IDEI. They insist that the only efficient protection from electro-magnetic pulses of a nuclear explosion is represented by the national Missile Defense System (MDS) where much more budgetary funds need to be invested. This attitude of these representatives becomes clear when comparing a relatively low cost of HEMP protection means for the most important elements and systems of the national infrastructure with the costs for development and production of an efficient multi-level missile shield, which protects the whole country. As for other non-nuclear means of IDEI [1], since the MDS does not protect from them, it is easier to pretend that they do not exist and the information about them in the mass media is nothing more than a bluff aimed at scaring housewives. However, everything is not that easy. There are missile systems from which the MDS does not protect, i.e., they are not capable of protecting the national infrastructure from the impact of electro-magnetic pulses of a nuclear explosion. What kind of systems are they?
Short- and intermediate-range missiles are potential sources of HEMP, against which the MDS are back-strapped. Today the tendency is to reduce the capacity of missile nuclear warheads due to improvements of their accuracy. For example, when a relatively accurate «Scarab B» with a circular error probable (CEP) of 250 m was equipped with a nuclear warhead with a capacity of

71
up to 200 kt (charge type AA-92) a more accurate and new «Stone» missile (fig. 4), with a CEP of 30 m can be equipped with a nuclear warhead with a capacity of only 50 kt (fig. 3). However, 50 kt is not enough to generate powerful and efficient HEMP.
A well-publicized missile «Stone» which is claimed to be unique appears to be not that unique in reality. Israeli missiles LORA (LOng Range Attack) possess very similar tactical and technical specifications, features of trajectory and control system. Moreover, compared to «Stone» their CEP is smaller (CEP = 10 m), the mass of their missile is two times less, their warhead mass is larger, they can carry a more powerful nuclear charge and they have a universal launching unit, which can be assembled on different vehicles, including ships. The launching unit of LORA system manufactured as a container with four missiles, which resembles the Russian containers Club-K with the same number of missiles 3M-
14KE, X-35UE (fig. 4).
Fig. 3. Missile launchers of a battle-field support rocket SS-21 «Scarab B» (Tochka-U) - above and tactical ballistic missile system SS-26 «Stone» (Iskander-E) - below
The Club-K - Russian container-based missile unit, which can fit a standard 20- or 40-foot sea container, is intended for targeting above-water and ground targets. The unit can be installed on the coast lines, different classes of vessels, railway and truck platforms. The complex can be used with ground launching units as well as sea, railway and truck platforms. It can use the following anti-ship missiles: 3M-54KE, 3M-54KE1, X-35UE and missiles for hitting ground targets, such as 3M-14KE, X-35UE. All the missiles included in the complex are cruise missiles, flying at a relatively low altitude of 10-150 m and are not intended to be equipped with nuclear warheads, while LORA is equipped with tactical ballistic missile, which can fly as high as 45 km and can carry high capacity nuclear charges at a distance of up to 300 km.
Why do I pay so much attention to these missile systems? Because this type of relatively small missiles fitted
into standard sea containers on ships near the coast line or even in ports (fig. 5) and capable of carrying nuclear charges over hundreds of kilometers while ascending to altitudes of several tens kilometers are the sources of HEMP invulnerable to any MDS both existing and potentially developed due to their capability of concealed approach to a target, ultra-low approach time and changing trajectory during flight.
Fig. 4. Container-based launching units of missile complexes Club-K (above) and LORA (below)
The possibility of concealed approach of tactical warhead missiles of a small action radius to a target in order to avoid its interception by MDS on the one hand and to take it out of regulation of international treaties on the other hand, has long been known to specialists and the attempts to develop these systems started immediately upon creation of relatively small nuclear warhead missiles. For example, in 1961 the US airborne units received «Little John» (MGR-3) missiles, which were equipped with free-flight rockets capable of carying nuclear warheads. Light-weight launch units of this system could be delivered by CH-47 «Chinook» helicopters both in the pit and on external lift.
The Soviet Union quickly appreciated the advantages of these systems and based on the Decree of the Council of Ministers of USSR No. 135-66 dated February 5, 1962, the development of tactical missile complex «FROG-7» (9K53) with 9M21B rockets (nuclear warhead) and 9M21B1 (thermonuclear warhead) and the launch unit 9P114 represented by a light-weight self-propelled platform with a carburettor engine M-407 with a capacity of 45 h.p. from «Mosckvich-407» car. Later on several modifications of such systems were introduced, which allowed for transporting by MI-6 and MI-10 cargo copters. The helicopter was expected to deliver the rocket with its launch unit behind enemy lines. The rest of the way where necessary could by covered on wheels and

then it could suddenly strike a rocket from a position which the enemy did not consider, which translates it from a tactical complex into strategical one.
Fig. 5. Containers resting on ships and in ports where tactical ballistic nuclear warhead missiles can fit are invulnerable to MDS
The efforts of «FROG-7» development reached the stage of experimental samples testing. However, this resulted in many obstacles including high «windage» of a helicopter carrying a launch unit and consequently high drifting rate as well as inappropriate flying range of fully loaded helicopters. As a result the efforts on development of this complex were discontinued in 1965.
Modern technological level has made it possible to return to this idea and realize it successfully. Today, there are over a hundred million standard containers circulating all over the world (fig. 5). Who knows which of them are just containers and which of them carry rockets... While Israeli LORA is actually the only fully-featured container system, which can secretly approach to the coast line of a country on a container ship and hit its territory with an electro-magnetic pulse, the fact of existence of this system allows us to conclude that the statements of MIS representatives about efficient protection of advanced MDS against HEMP and that they should continue to receive additional investments are not true and in fact are a way of deceiving public opinion. In practice an army will not be able to ensure efficient protection of energy supply systems of cities and settlements from IDEI and thus, electric engineers should take the leading role and take care of such protection.
What needs to be done in order to protect a country from an «electro-magnetic Armageddon»? Since all the necessary research efforts have already been conducted and their results and practical recommendations are published in open sources [24-34] as well as covered in multiple standards of International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) [34-41], Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) [42], military standards of US MoD [44-49], it is necessary to stop financing a large number of organizations speculating on this problem and using it as a source of their welfare and stream the free funds into performance of certain actions aimed at protection of electric energy systems from IDEI [50]. Those countries that do not have such branched network of organizations dealing with the problem like that of the USA should not follow the USA rather they should start creating similar entities, not doing so leads to a dead-end. The only organization that must be kept to manage the process should, in my opinion, be the National Coordination Center on IDEI problem the purpose of which would be to analyze the published literature, develop a plan of certain actions within specific time frames, assign responsible people to observe performance of these time frames, issue specific technical requirements for the organizations with regard to protection of electric power supply systems from IDEI and then organize and coordinate their efforts. The results of these efforts should not be reports and conferences (which must be simply prohibited!), but real substations and power plants protected from IDEI.
