EMP's can be produced by briefcase sized nuclear devices. While everyone is looking up, it might be a good idea to occasionally look down and side-to-side. The device needs to be exploded at a low level height within a couple thousand feet.
The devastation is caused by ruining the electronics. They don't just go off-line and need to be rebooted. The EMP fries them.
