Boeing Like You've Never Seen: Microwave Electronics Fryer

Perhaps there's nothing that catches the eyes of your MesaZona blogger more than a headline that starts off with 'dubious claim', includes the letters ICBM and the company name Boeing on a EMP missile with a sub-title LIKE A CHAMP:
Dubious claim of week: Air Force’s “EMP missile” could disable N. Korean ICBMs
An explanation is definitely in order and some more information, please . . . the revelation appeared in industry publication ArsTechnica yesterday along with the opening image here.
CHAMP microwave pulse can disable electronics, but “frying” ICBMs is a long shot.
