I have no idea how fragile solar panels are, but wouldn't cluster bombs or possibly thermobaric weaponry work reasonably well against large surface areas like this?
- Retric 4y agoUS Army strategy often assumes air superiority by US forces. Mortars are simply a more likely risk than cluster bombs. Further it’s fuel rather than generators that’s a problem, it’s bulky, flammable, and finite.

- ncmncm 4y agoThat would have hardly any effect. Soot would, though.
- lm28469 4y agoI doubt it would have "hardly any effect" tbh, naturally occurring dust/sand is already a big issue: https://jrenewables.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s40807-017-0043-y https://jrenewables.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s40807... > In desert area, the accumulation of dust on PV panel surface is very high. The reduction in solar efficiency due to dust on PV panel is approximately 40%
