An air space and ground attack system includes a neutron beam generator operable to emit neutron beamlets from a radioactive neutron source. A plurality of carbon tubes grouped into a plurality of subsections are disposed within the neutron beam generator, downstream from the beam generator. A radiation pipe, constructed of a plurality of elongated elongated tubes, is supported by a cradle that extends along the length of the radiation pipe. The cradle is constructed of a first and a second side that are attached and supported by a series of support braces. The radiation pipe is disposed downstream from the beam generator so that neutron beamlets produced by the neutron source pass from the beam generator through the radiation pipe. Neutron beams can be used to create gamma radiation which can in-turn disable electronic equipment, such that are found in enemy aircraft, missile guidance systems, communication systems found in ground targets and/or the like.
