US Navy’s first laser weapon cleared for combat, blows up a boat, a small plane (video)
Earlier in the year, the U.S. Navy deployed its first combat-ready laser weapon system in the Persian Gulf — and now, after some field testing, we have a glorious video of the laser being used to blow up (unmanned) boats and drones. I’m happy to report that laser weapons are as awesome as you may have hoped.
