If I had that I could actually win my ongoing mosquito war. |

I do like that it has the ability to "dazzle" a target as well as try to kill it. Blinding optical targeting sensors is a mission kill. |

Yes! I have been waiting for this and mentioned it here a number of times.. Armand, all those new Chinese weapons you post for us will have to deal with this! |

After both sides to a naval engagement blind the other's targeting sensors and eliminate the other's drones -- and all of the major naval powers should be able to make laser weapons -- the next step will be grappling and boarding actions. I look forward to the return of the cutlass! |

Need to mount that to the hood of my car. |

Satellite-based ballistic missile defense can't be far behind. |

Better to mount it on the roof of the car, after you put in the roll cage and extra supports. Of course the value of your car will make take it exotic level. Not sure of the power needed to fire a very small burst, but I am sure your Lighting or Cyber truck battery might get off a shot. |

Satellite-based ballistic missile defense can't be far behind. Ground-based will be cheaper and have better access to power. |
