Sounds alot like the Phalanx (spepping?) anti-ship missile system onboard our Navy ships...

See my above post. It's already public knowledge that is a few years old.

They do that.

""Trophy", uses radar to track incoming threats and then destroys them when they're in range by attacking the warheads with an "invisible force", according to Fox. Quite how it does this is, unsurprisingly, classified, but Defense Update understands Trophy is "designed to form a 'beam' of fragments, which will intercept any incoming HEAT threat, including RPG rockets at a range of 10 metres to 30 meters from the protected platform"."

Meaning you now know to use longer range munitions, or at least know to run when your first shot is vaporized before it hits. It also means you prioritize finding and taking one of these vehicles intact, and work on a new mechanism to dismantle our armored vehicles... Like a laser activated shaped charge or mine.

These releases of information help the enemy and do nothing for our troops but put them at greater risk..

I have a cousin in Iraq, riding in an M1A1.
