The emp grenade utilizing advances in power storage technology, pulsed power and room temperature superconductors this grenade uses a series of transformers to discharge a a large amount over a short amount of time. This grenade was developed by US DOD Phalanx scientests, as part of the original Phalanx program, to even the odds by disabling advanced technology. While our firearms are unaffected the enemies weapons rely extensively on stored electrical energy and magnetic fields engineered on a nano scale. Due to the nature of particle beam weaponry's reliance on miniaturized a cyclotron to contain high velocity particles the sudden loss of containment would cause a catastrophic failure. Plasma weaponry is rendered usless and robots sustain serious damage.
