Navy Reveals New ‘Star Wars’ Laser Weapon As printed in USMilitary.com
The Navy revealed perhaps its most deadly laser technology weapon for the future.
Naturally and carefully not to reveal too much, the Navy named this new weapon LAWS (Laser Weapons System). It resembles a modest sized telescope but can set towering flames to moving targets on ground, in water or in the air.
Not to waste time, the Navy has already announced it will place this all new weapon aboard a ship in the Persian Gulf early in 2014.
In fact, the Navy revealed in a test last summer, off the coast of California, that this laser weapon set flames to a fast approaching drone sending it crashing into the Pacific.
