The Cutting Edge Advancements in Modern Weaponry

Online, April 24, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Companies like Boeing and Northrop Grumman have put out statements about their ongoing work on high energy laser technology and it's application in modern warfare. Both companies have developed technology that can potentially implement lasers as reliable and effective weapons in today's combat zones. Designing these weapons has been in progress for a short time but with recent funding, we may be seeing laser beams shooting through the sky on our televisions. One of the technologies being developed by these companies is what is referred to as a Directed-Energy Weapon. This weapon emits energy in a specific direction without the use of a projectile. It's intended effects may be managed in order to be lethal or non lethal. The energy these weapons can potentially use can come in various forms such as : Electromagnetic Radiation, Heat, Particles with Mass, or even Sound or Sonic Weapons. 



These weapons can potentially decrease collateral damage in civilian areas. Not to mention the speed and accuracy of these weapons. Because laser beams are forms of light, they would in a sense travel at the speed of light and therefore have a much greater range than most projectile weapons used today. The application of these laser or energy weapons may eventually become standard use within military forces around the world but civilian use is unlikely. The idea of taking your laser gun hunting may seem like an appealing one but until then, you may have to stick to your faithful bullet firing weapons.
