SUBS17 Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 A normal laser range finder can blind a person, future lasers of the type described would probably enable a look/shoot capability to destroy aircraft at any point visible to the pilot. It would be something quite deadly in a dogfight. Current lasers are limited by heat and fire in pulses from what I've read. In an aircraft heat is much easier to disapate.

Force_Feedback Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 A while ago I've rea something about an energy beam being made which actually transfers huge quantities of "energy" (they didn't say what kind of energy), but it looked awfuly similar to the infamous phaser from Star Trek (the beam itself, not the looks of the weapon) Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
