After reading what our current capabilities to produce non-nuclear electromagnetic pulses, all the requirements are basically non-starters. Tho from the limited amount I could find, directional high energy electromagnetic weapons might be an option if you could get it to backpack size and slapped it on a turret. But even that is magical thinking.
Thanks! This sub has not only informed me, but inspired me to read on practical energy weapons too.
