Small EMPs are relatively easy to generate and if memory serves there was at least one test in the 90s that was basically an EMP generator that could be shoved into a moving van suck off the grid and then go off. There has been relatively little open research on this subject for obvious reasons.
Possibly but the 90s were peak BS R&D only really behind WW2 R&D, fucky caseless munitions, weird computer warfare experiments, early modern drones, Et cetera. Mind you the damned thing may have only worked once on a fluke but it’s well within believablity given everything else being fucked with at the time.
What is interesting, there was just an article, these scientists made this super magnet that was really small, like 1,000x stronger by size and using way less electricity to do t. I forget some rare earths it was made of. Just a week back maybe wish I read it closer. I wonder if that could make a bigger emp surge easier.

Oceans 11 bullshit.
