@@vappyreon1176 Space-based lasers aren’t especially practical as terrestrial weapons. There’s this thing called an atmosphere that gets in the way of high energy photons from space. It kinda keeps us from being broiled the instant we step out of the shade. Visible light is in a narrow band that has the ability to make it much of the way through. The lower the energy level, the better it generally passes through the atmosphere… but the less practical it is as a weapon.
That just depends upon the frequency spectrum you're using, if its visible frequency spectrum, you'll be able to see it white or monochrome depending upon the frequency used, if it falls under Infrared or UV, you definitely cannot see it.
@@moizaleem9756 Wouldn't that require the laser to be hitting or passing through something (like smoke) to be visible, though? Since the light's being directed away, it's gotta bounce off something for you to see it, unless you're the target, in which case your eyes are now probably paste.
Honestly if there was a mech army we had, where the robot is controlled by humans and it’s just as responsive as a call of duty game. I’d definitely join that department, time to rack the biggest kill streak in history against china 🤣
Im more scared of Russian biological weapons than missiles. In 2020 we saw China was working with Covid. from my point of view it was clearly intended to be used on humans.

They have to be stupid to shoot on a mirror. Since the laser travels with speed of light, it is impossible to move a mirror in the trajectory in the meantime
@@mrmofopink Also a mirror won't really get in the way of a very powerful laser. Might reflect a good bit of stuff (idk how it exactly works with UV light) but a little bit that does get absorbed will be enough to destroy the mirror.
@@Logan_93 ummm. Not sure if it's true, but laser is a type of light, and light bounces of mirrors perfectly, that's how u can see yourself on a mirror properly, so I think putting a mirror should work. Correct if i am wrong
Depends on the wavelength of the light. Certain mirrors are made to reflect particular wavelengths. If I heard correctly the Laser used is Infrared which can be reflected by bathroom mirrors.
there are some in use that aren’t publicly acknowledged because of intermittent issues, just like it’d be bad to tell you enemy you have a gun that works half the time they don’t tell them about the more high power UV and IR lasers that only work sometimes and when they don’t work they just go back to traditional methods
In games like fallout, the ammo is heavy and limited, but in a ship i guess you can just put a giant battery somewhere, because there must be a lot of space available.
After they finished testing the prototype on the USS Ponce the captain requested if they could keep it on the ship. It cost less than $1 per shot and they figured the crew could get some experience using the system. The system was operational until the ship was decommissioned 18 months later. They amount of data they got from the program was crazy as the system was used hundreds if not thousands of times. They also took the same system on a 747 and tested it. The US military was a bit more tight lipped about that operation, but it was remarked that it was successful. Rumors point to testing if the targeting system could hit a missile, possibly an ICBM, from a flying base.

They have 3 more on order. The Air Force and Navy also have samples of this 50klw system that they are testing. The US has also order 4 mobile truck mounted lasers and 1 naval laser system for 2024 that is 300kw. 300kw would be a game changer. Say you took op 1/2 the bomb bay of B-52 with even a 150kw laser you could likely hit any SAM or AAM or even other fighter jets that came within several miles of it. What could Russia do to stop it. Literally that B-52 could fly over Russia all day and Russia could not stop it. At 150kw it could down a missile in less than a second and these things can fire back to back shots over and over. Even shooting 20 S-300 at one time would likely not touch it. An Su-35 could not get close enough to use guns and any missile they shoot would be shot down. The US and Israel (with help from the US) are the only countries with this level of laser defense likely for the next 20 years. If they could fit a 300kw system in a bomber, that is powerful enough to strike the ground from 50,000 feet. This strong of a laser should be able to do double that range or more in clear weather (Israel claims their 150kw lasers will have a range of 20km). Think of sending a B-2 with one of these 300kw systems just flying over Russia hitting ever SAM site and radar it sees., then pepper tanks with hundreds of shots until the engine or ammo cooks off... It could hit thousands of targets in just a few hours. Now currently lasers can not be used on humans according to the Geneva Convention, but this is likely to change as there is really little difference between a laser and an AP round from a rifle. It is going to punch a hole right through you and likely vaporize the flesh so fast it will not cauterize. It will be like driving a needle right through your body.

It’s no secret that the US government has been and continues to create experimental weapons even in the 80s or 90s they had a space program called pebbles it was literally giant tungsten steel rods placed in a satellite that would orbit the earth and release these massive rods onto the earth utilizing gravity as a way move the rod towards its target destination the rod was gigantic and would uproot an entire city in a matter of seconds I believe they were truly intended to be bunker busters
The Enterprise aircraft carrier had some nice high tech not many even know about since it is still classified. Yet I had a couple friends that were on her. So now I can't say much but the new ship will have more stuff even. That is the thing about the military so many secrets they would like to tell but can't. Yet.
Looks like the germans have another reason to bellyache about american military weapons like the trench shotgun which had a feature where you simply held the trigger and the gun fired as fast as you could pump shells america we do love the term overkill don't we
since plasma is air-like, I don’t think plasma guns are effective, since guns shoot small projectiles for good pierce and damage, but for plasma weaponry you only need plasma to heat things up as fast as possible; would be cool to see a plasma firefighting hose or something
@@tenvoichatuoi2262 yeah but concentrated plasma would be deadly. I'm pretty sure the only reason people would use blasters instead of guns is that the blaster ammo is disgustingly cheap and a standard blaster holds a lot of rounds. It might also be more deadly than a normal gun considering the fact that people die when shot once or twice with a blaster where as you need to be shot like 4 or 5 times with a normal gun to die (not to the head though obviously). A blaster also has more features like stun mode for example. Not only that but a blaster is waaaaay more accurate than a normal gun. A blaster is also more humane as you won't feel the pain of a shot for long as it will burn your pain receptors.

Technically they have, but I’m assuming most were prototypes that either A. Didn’t work well or B. We’re still upgrading it. I’m gonna assume option B. Hell just looking at the laser looks like it took a bit of tries to get it to work perfectly and even then it’s big, bulky, and on an Aircraft Carrier. But I did read that the U.S military wants to put more scaled down versions (obviously less powerful) on fighter jets.
Its great, just not in bad weather such as fog, rain or cloudy conditions. Also suffers from limited range because of the curvature of the earth and the height of waves etc that's why it's mounted so high on the ship.

So I deployed and worked with a EOD Unit in Afghanistan. Interestingly enough, a lot of our robotic equipment (EOD bots , remote controlled drones and guns) use reconfigured Xbox controllers because it was easier and cheaper then the military creating their own controllers.
I still think that no matter how serious the matter is, humans would always find a way to make it fun. I mean years of research to build a multimillion weapon just to control it with an Xbox controller ?
Yeah they realized, that soldiers are already familiar with this kind of controller, so it is way more intuitive than self developed controlling devices.
Yeah so they can get all the ps4. Xbox players that play war games into the military to fight real battles, that is probably their plan to recruit people into the military.

@@andersonpeng3243 it would work just like regular armor. It would reflect for a while depending on the power of the laser and eventually fail, since mirrors aren’t 100% reflective

It’s no secret that the US government has been and continues to create experimental weapons even in the 80s or 90s they had a space program called pebbles it was literally giant tungsten steel rods placed in a satellite that would orbit the earth and release these massive rods onto the earth utilizing gravity as a way move the rod towards its target destination the rod was gigantic and would uproot an entire city in a matter of seconds I believe they were truly intended to be bunker busters
Hmmmmmmm
This is the only *publicly acknowledged* laser. Imagine what else they have that we don’t know of.
You don't have to imagine,think it and they have it.

Not a whole lot probably. There is no good reason to hide it and a reason to show it, unless it’s very unfinished.

Plasma =/= light
since plasma is air-like, I don’t think plasma guns are effective, since guns shoot small projectiles for good pierce and damage, but for plasma weaponry you only need plasma to heat things up as fast as possible; would be cool to see a plasma firefighting hose or something
@@tenvoichatuoi2262 yeah but concentrated plasma would be deadly. I'm pretty sure the only reason people would use blasters instead of guns is that the blaster ammo is disgustingly cheap and a standard blaster holds a lot of rounds. It might also be more deadly than a normal gun considering the fact that people die when shot once or twice with a blaster where as you need to be shot like 4 or 5 times with a normal gun to die (not to the head though obviously).
A blaster also has more features like stun mode for example.
Not only that but a blaster is waaaaay more accurate than a normal gun. A blaster is also more humane as you won't feel the pain of a shot for long as it will burn your pain receptors.
The bolts are actually made out of plasma
