Good old Vlad the In-Putin is back and on the attack in Moscow. He recently slipped that the country is developing an electromagnetic gun that attacks a person’s central nervous system, leaving the target in a brief zombie-like state.

Plans to introduce the weapon were announced last week by Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov who said “when it was used for dispersing a crowd and it was focused on a man, his body temperature went up immediately as if he was thrown into a frying pan. We know very little about this weapon, and even special-forces guys can hardly cope with it.”

The weapon uses electromagnetic radiation like that found in microwave ovens, and, according to the UK Mail Online, Putin plans to use the guns “for achieving political and strategic goals.”

These stories took over the internet for a few days and ranged from sites including the Mother News Network  to AntiWar.com with sensational headlines and not much else.

Now these guns aren’t new, according to Alan Boyle at MSNBC, “The Americans as well as the Russians have been looking into psychotronic weapons for more than 15 years. You can find ample references to the subject on the Internet, including a feature published by U.S. News and World Report in 1997 and a report written for a U.S. Army publication in 1998.”

In fact, this item is known underground in tech circles as a HERF gun….you can even find plans in great detail for it in open source information (click HERE for your top secret Zombie Gun Plans!)

Maybe Putin has mastered the internet.

In Russia, microwave cooks you!
