Lasers mah niggas, It's finally in use. Starting on drones, moving on to bigger targets.

After seeing kebabs getting splattered and pulped for years, it'll a appropriate to see them getting cooked for once

>>33675731
The lasers are mainly anti-missile. Use of lasers on ground targets is a waste of energy compared to the desired effect.
>>
>>33675747
Can you imagine though? The fucks don't even see the laser, they just start catching fire and burning up. For a little bit, their buddies probably legit think it is allah melting them.

I wish the army wasn't so cucked and restarted their portable nuclear reactor program (which ended in vitro due to the SL1 incident). A laser for every convoy.

How much closer are we to C&C Generals?
>>
>>33675747
Not anti-missile. Not yet. Anti-drone, specifically Class 1 and 2 UAVs. Maybe Class 3 if they get close enough.
>>
>>33677579
why do you believe you would need a portable reactor for this
A diesel produces ample energy
The problem is the laser, not the energy production of the vehicle

more power = more laser = more death

also if the truck blows up, it contaminates the surrounding area and anything downwind which means more death
>>

>The fucks don't even see the laser, they just suddenly go blind.
Honestly laser weapons are terrifying.
>>
>>33675312
Your picture is from a proposition for the Oshkosh testbed of the boeing chemical laser. The military was hoping to run that with a trailer that had the then proposed portable nuclear generator. It was going to be a 120-160kW chemical laser for anti air, anti ballistic missile, and missile defense.

The military went back towards Lockheed's solid state laser because they required considerably less power and less space, albeit had a much lower power output. This still keeps Boeing's chemical laser contributions relevant for possible naval use or use for installations and more demanding anti air capabilities, but power generation needs to mature before more government spending is put in that direction.
>>
>>33677579
But we are working on portable nuclear generators anon.

No we aren't
Thats just vaporware crap

You say vaporware, I say government will go to phase 3 contracts and then move on.

They're already mutants, southern Iraq and parts of Afghan are already wall-eyed, 6-fingered fuck central

Nah, Navy's gone full SSL.

That's why they're always fucking goats. Goat -centaurs would be able to traverse rough terrain and survive on garbage.

>was
The chemical laser program got canceled around 2010-2012, but you are correct anon.
>>
>>33677644
Happened:
>GLA
>Lasers/Microwave weapons
>Chemical weapons used by terrorists
>Turkey taken over by islamists
>widespread terror attacks in Europe

Yet to Happen:
>Terrorists with nukes
>Terrorists with bioweapons
>Nuke terror attack in China
>China blows up 3 Gorges Dam
>US and China team up to fight global terrorists

I'd say we're about halfway there

>>33677579
Reactors and fuel have a worse power/weight ratio then a gas turbine and fuel if you need less then a megawatt-week of energy.
