calius Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 ARTICLE HERE LOS ALAMOS, N.M. - There is a new breed of weaponry fast approaching — and at the speed of light, no less. They are labeled "directed-energy weapons," and they may well signal a revolution in military hardware — perhaps more so than the atomic bomb.

FA sear Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Maybe in GRAW3 we can call on one of these to take out a target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pz3 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 I still think with all this technology I hope the goverment is experimenting ways to keep them from beeing jammed.... EMP resistant or somthing.... EMP bombs are in the works from what I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
element11 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Great. Just what we need, bigger better weapons for killing each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EMP bombs are in the works from what I know. ← Actually plans for an EMP have been discovered to used by Al Qaeda cells. An EMP will knock out anything that used electronics or electrical components, including cars, trucks, fresh water pumps, fuel station pumps and many more ordinary things that run civilization.

cdnsniper Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Great. Just what we need, bigger better weapons for killing each other. ← I think the point of this is to prevent deaths in combat by ways of intimidation, and destroying missiles upon other things. Meh, I could just be a "glass half full" kind of guy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before world war one, Maxim, the dude who invented the machine gun said that this gun will prevent all wars, and a commander would be insane to send soldiers against the machine gun.

There will always be a "bad guy" out there developing weapons for killing people. We need to stay ahead of them in development so that they don't pass us up. Imagine if we still just had machineguns. They would be far past us by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=warcloud= Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Its the new generation of LASER PENS.. ← Ha, laser pen. PHaSR Rifle 11/2/2005 - KIRTLAND AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. (AFPN) -- A laser technology weapon will be the first man-portable, non-lethal deterrent weapon intended for protecting troops and controlling hostile crowds. The weapon, developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory's Directed Energy Directorate, employs a two-wavelength laser system and is a hand-held, single-operator system for troop and perimeter defense. The laser light used in the weapon temporarily impairs aggressors by illuminating or "dazzling" individuals, removing their ability to see the laser source. The first two prototypes of the Personnel Halting and Stimulation Response, or PHaSR, were built here last month and delivered to the laboratory's Human Effectiveness Directorate at Brooks City Base, Texas, and the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate at Quantico, Va. for testing. "The future is here with PHaSR," said Capt. Thomas Wegner program manager. Captain Wegner is also the ScorpWorks flight commander within the laser division of the energy directorate here. ScorpWorks is a unit of military scientists and engineers that develops laser system prototypes for AFRL, from beginning concept to product field testing. The National Institute of Justice recently awarded ScorpWorks $250,000 to make an advanced prototype that will add an eye-safe laser range finder into PHaSR. Systems such as PHaSR have historically been too powerful at close ranges and ineffective but eye-safe at long ranges. The next prototype is planned to include the addition of the eye-safe range finder and is planned for completion in March 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
