Lockheed Laser Gun Destroys Truck From a Mile Away

The system, unveiled at the Defense and Security Equipment Industry Expo in London, features four high energy lasers mounted on turret, making it look like some kind of laser Gatling gun, Popular Mechanics reported.

The four 20 kilowatt lasers fire simultaneously, in a technique known as superimposition which combines them into a single powerful 80 kilowatt beam.

Personally I prefer plasma rifles but I give them a B for effort...

For some reason I think I have seen that picture of the truck hood before.

Will it work on barking dogs?

An anti-drone laser system.

When the British massed tanks for the assault a Cambrai in 1917, only a year after they had been first deployed, they encountered German artillery batteries trained to hit moving targets. The first anti-tank guns.

Every measure begets a countermeasure.

This will be excellent to take care of the current Muslim invasion, I’d deploy it forthwith.

It was me after I rebuilt my carbuerator.

They should miniaturize it and attach to VW tailpipes and zap the crap coming out.

[trisham]

Wow.

[rrrod]

I want one!

[rlmorel]

Yes...but can it be mounted on a shark’s head?

I would prefer a good quality replicator to make some Romulan Ale or Klingon Bloodwine.

It's superposition. Superimposition is a term used in graphic arts and design where one image is overlaid with another.
