MILITARY APPLICATIONS OF SUPERCONDUCTIVITY
Welcome to Mike Heiberger's info site on Military Applications
of Superconductivity. Below are some examples of superconducting magnet
technologies that either have been or are currently under development
by branches of the military. Several of the examples provided were
designed and built under government contract at General Atomics in San
Diego, CA, the company I work for. To learn about the basics
of superconducting magnets, click here on BASICS, or go
