We're watching one of the "Future Weapons" shows. It's about the Javelin, the shoulder fired, fire and forget, anti-tank missle launcher. Next up is the gun the fires around a corner!
The show is interesting. In many ways its a big infomercial for various programs to get heightened visibility and hopefully more funding. The show goes light on certain operational capabilities for opsec reasons and leaves almost too much to the imagination of the armchair generals. But that's ok. It'll give the bad guys some shock and awe to contemplate.
The host amuses me. He's a first-class bad ***. He has ego. He has strut. He has an entourage. But he was excited like a child, "Look at this!! Woah! And look at that!!" I was also surprised at how soft spoken his is.
