The Immense Electrical Power Could Tune In HAARP

Many conspiracy theorist  have long piped about the  High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program or commonly know as HAARP. Jesse Ventura, former Governor of Minnesota gave internet streaming to the subject. He exploited the Alaska HAARP base as a cause of the world's earthquakes. There was even a tie to the mega earth Quake in Haiti as a HAARP event. China had major earthquakes at that time as well. HAARP was a suggested cause for those quakes. 

The common denominator to all this conspiracy theory is electrical power. The USS Zumwalt could light a small town with its power source. The secret weapon of the Zumwalt could be a HAARP generator stationed off some coast line waiting for the next hurricane or earth quake to happen.

An off-mainstream website has this to say about HAARP:

"The military says the HAARP system could:

• Give the military a tool to replace the electromagnetic pulse effect of atmospheric thermonuclear devices (still considered a viable option by the military through at least 1986)
• Replace the huge Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) submarine communication system operating in Michigan and Wisconsin with a new and more compact technology
• Be used to replace the over-the-horizon radar system that was once planned for the current location of HAARP, with a more flexible and accurate system
• Provide a way to wipe out communications over an extremely large area, while keeping the military's own communications systems working
• Provide a wide area earth-penetrating tomography which, if combined with the computing abilities of EMASS and Cray computers, would make it possible to verify many parts of nuclear nonproliferation and peace agreements
• Be a tool for geophysical probing to find oil, gas and mineral deposits over a large area
• Be used to detect incoming low-level planes and cruise missiles, making other technologies obsolete

Further reading at HAARP  .Net will fill in more details of what the HAARP generation has for power needs to generate trouble and mischief. 

Wikipedia makes a "power" point: "Lyndon B. Johnson, the last Zumwalt, is being considered for the installation of a railgun in place of one of the 155 mm naval guns after the ship is built. This is due to the installed Rolls-Royce turbine generators being capable of producing 78 megawatts (105,000 hp), enough to power the electromagnetic weapon."

The HAARP case with the Zumwalt class Destroyers become a no-brainer when considering what it has already achieved with its built-in power generation capability.

A small example of the Zumwalt possibilities: 

"The class has a low radar cross-section; an integrated power system that can send electricity to the electric drive motors or weapons," 

The Zumwalt could light up 2,500 homes but it won't, its built for war.
