US Edition‘Discombobulator’: The secret weapon Trump says US used to capture Maduro
Trump credited the 'Discombobulator' for disabling Venezuelan defenses and jamming communications during the capture of Maduro, involving over 150 U.S. aircraft, officials said.
- President Donald Trump said a device nicknamed the 'Discombobulator' helped make Venezuelan military equipment 'not work' during the early-January capture of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores.
- Coordinated strikes and cyberattacks disabled radar, communications and air-defence systems, clearing airspace for helicopters and special operations forces.
- More than 150 aircraft from 20 bases supported the mission, including EA-18 Growler electronic-warfare aircraft and MH-60 Direct Action Penetrator helicopters with 30-millimetre autocannons.
- Venezuelan Defence Minister Vladimir Padrino López alleged 47 Venezuelan soldiers and 32 Cuban troops died during the U.S. attack and accused Washington of testing advanced weapons.
- Experts cautioned that symptoms alone don't prove a new weapon, with investigators linking a DHS-purchased device to Havana Syndrome and Thomas Withington saying `You can't necessarily use these two technologies, acoustic and radio, interchangeably`.
