In a recent article on news site cnn.com, the reporter refers to an explosively formed penetrator (EFP) as "essentially a high-tech bomb", and then goes on to regurgitate the federal government's line that "Iran supplies these high-tech bombs", with no substantiation offered. Sometimes it's just sufficient to repeat the accusation enough times for stupid Americans to stop questioning and swallow the bait - hook, line, and sinker. Remember Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction?
Now, if you want to learn just how "high-tech" of a technology an explosively formed penetrator really is, consult this informative article on Wikipedia...
Explosively formed penetrator (wikipedia.org)
As you can tell, it's really just a straightforward mechanical explosive. Nothing really all that "high-tech" about it, particularly as it is employed in Iraq - it simply utilizes some basic principles of physics. There's no sophisticated guided targeting systems, or magical humvee detection electronics, or anything. It's just a particularly lethally shaped bomb.
Of course, if you do want to see some more "hi-tech" embodiments of the EFP principle, you only have to look at all the weapons products manufactured by our own trusty Military Industrial Complex. In fact, almost every example of an EFP that the article can find to mention happens to be manufactured by US companies. So tell me now about a bunch of fucking bullshit pussy US media bias!
