Air Force Explores Diamond Windows For Jets

“The U.S. Air Force may soon be adding some serious bling to its aircraft, in the form of windows made from 80-carat diamonds. In theory, the windows would protect jets from high-powered microwaves (HPMs) they would themselves produce. The Air Force is vague on the details, but HPM devices aboard a jet could be used to disrupt or destroy enemy electrical systems. The problem is, they could also disrupt systems on board the jet itself.” Link
