#2 IANANP (I am not a nuclear physicist) but:
Nuclear payload? I have doubts they could even make a functional warhead that light. Might could buy one someplace but even then, I think it would need to be a 'fresh' one, as I think it would need a Tritium boost, and that decays fairly quickly.
Non-nuclear EMP device would be quite limited in range.

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
