    Are IAF assets protected from EMP effects and CBRN threats ?

    Maybe. Most of this is classified info for eg: the types and scales of EMP generated by nuclear weapons, and so we only know the open source stuff and speculate the rest.

    Are IAF assets protected from EMP effects and CBRN threats ?

    Well-designed faraday's cages, redundant circuitry, using special alloys, underground bunkers etc are used to protect against EMP. But I doubt any of these can guarantee 100% protection against all types of EMP attack. I don't know what the IAF is doing but they better be ready, China's got it...

    Once the gamma rays from the nuke come, they charge the environment and a conductor type material can produce the potential difference required to damage the ICs etc. But yes, devices can be hardened against EMP.

    Your post seems to be in agreement with what i said in my post, or did you mean to say something else. :notsure:

    Are IAF assets protected from EMP effects and CBRN threats ?

    The older the tech, the more the chance of survival from EMP. The Mig-25 apparently uses vaccum tubes so it is highly resistant to EMP, though I am not sure if it is fully immune.

    Are IAF assets protected from EMP effects and CBRN threats ?

    It depends on several factors, so I am not entirely sure. But I think ICs can get fried even when not ON, but chances of it, are increased when ON.
