>As of 1993 the project appeared to be in the early experimental stages. The weapon was able to produce doughnut-shaped rings of plasma and balls of lightning that exploded with devastating thermal and mechanical effects when hitting their target and produced pulse of electromagnetic radiation that could scramble electronics. The project's initial success led to it becoming classified, and only a few references to MARAUDER appeared after 1993. No information about the fate of the project has been published after 1995.

Either this was a huge success or a complete failure. I see no other reason to keep this stuff classified.

And it seems to have been working pretty well before it vanished.

Which means there's a serious chance that...

It was 20 years ago though. They should have perfected that tech by now.

What's plasma supposed to do that stuff we already have can't do?

Reminder that gunpowder and projectile weapons are obsolete and plasma weapons are the future.

That's not man-portable.
Should we consider Buks and S-400s MANPADS too?

Not with that attitude. Just use the steroids also in the picture, and you'll be good to go

10^10 G
5-10 megajoules of kinetic energy

That's the point.

plasma vortex gun, it's the only way and it only works in atmo
