The paper deals with electromagnetic threats caused due to Directed Energy Weapons (DEW). The area of interest is focused on HPM (High Power Microwaves) and UWB (Ultra Wide Bandwidth) as an important part of DEW area. Possible impact on electronic structures which can be part of military systems is considered in this paper. Some practical results achieved during experiments related to assessment of electronic equipment vulnerability is provided with overview of immunity of some equipment to HPM and UWB signals at the end of this study.
