Or even be used to see into hidden mined roadbed? A sound boom swept ahead of the vehicle, at a safe distantance?

Hey Nusskimsmuck, tell us about what you know in science and congeniality!

Hey you smart poo poo a$$es out there! just trying to save our young men and women out there! Many of our great inventions and discovered truths were laughed at by you impotent HeeHaw donkeyed eared freaks, and your kind!

To Ch ris & russkimschmuck, look up supersonic and it will tell you what it means. Greater than the speed of sound ( aprox. 1150 feet per second) in a given medium, subject to density, humidity, temp. etc.

They are using a frequency signal taken from the Viet-nam era to block and jam the cell phone and other remotes, but like anything else, not 100% cure. we need more input from the grass-rooted, and the red necks, and their resourcefull affro ingenuity. The soniferous devices used today carry warnings as to their safe applications, and sound from the word is most powerfull, and hurtfull to.

Not likely. In theory, yes to detonate bombs, you can even kill people with sound of a high enough intensity. However, this is not the most efficient way to detonate mines and other explosives. The hard part is not detonating IEDs for US troops, but locating them.
For that sound waves are not a practical or even possible option. I have no idea where on earth you got that idea from, or whether you have been seduced by propaganda ...
By the way, there's no such thing as supersonic sound waves. Sonic speed means the speed that sound travels at that medium in that temperature.

I thought of this too, what about some sort of field or electromagnetic pulse produced by a nuclear detonation that can somehow be localized. There must be some way to fry the circuitry in a radius of 5 to 10 miles. The civilians may be inconvenienced, but at least our guys would be safer or we come back in and restore the civilian infrastructure. Anyway, just some of my thoughts too. (no, i'm not talking about a nuclear detonation, but some way of creating an electromagnetic pulse...)

No, they're relatively stable and it takes an electrical charge to blow the detonating cap which blows the main charge.

No. I think there is a sound weapon being tested or was tested. Something I saw on The History Channel

Super-sonic SOUND waves?
Get back to school.
Don't they teach physics anymore?

Don't know.
But you are thinking.
Thank you.
