"voice to skull devices
Definition/Scope:
Nonlethal weapon which includes (1) a neuro-electromagnetic device which uses microwave transmission of sound into the skull of persons or animals by way of pulse-modulated microwave radiation; and (2) a silent sound device which can transmit sound into the skull of person or animals.

Making enemy combatants hear voices on the battlefield would be greatly confusing to the blokes. Imagine hearing Thomas Edison synthesized with AI speaking Arabic saying that nothing happened and to forget about it before Guy Lombardo plays 'Stairway to Heaven.
