US Army Tests "The Laser"

[LAte]

Heh. Nice one. Of course it wouldn't be a "Death Star" it would be the "Freedom Star".

wat? Team America?

 

[Dommyboy]

For all you physics majors, here's a question: if you irradiate a nuclear device, would it be disintegrated or would it just go off in the air?

I want an answer.

 

[DirkGently]

Heh. Nice one. Of course it wouldn't be a "Death Star" it would be the "Freedom Star".

wat? Team America?

No, my own personal wit. "Freedom X" jokes were around before Team America. They've been around since Freedom Fries.

Btw, apparently this doesn't work at all if it's a cloudy day - the laser refracts on the suspended droplets and it becomes an oversized LED

 

[L33tsauce_Marty]

This is FUCKIN' awesome! YEAH!

AMERICA! FUCK YEAH! COMMIN' AGAIN TO SAVE THE MOTHERFUCKIN' DAY YEAH!

 

[Ionami]

Heh. Nice one. Of course it wouldn't be a "Death Star" it would be the "Freedom Star".

"We're going to free the shit out of you"

Excellent. Made my day.

I don't know if this kind of invention makes me nervous or relieved it exists. I'm leaning towards relieved.

[Metonym]

step: 1) build lazors.
2) Conquer earthz.
3) profit.

 

[Jack and Calumon]

And so the US army have now found a brand new way to annoy everyone in IRAQ.

 

[Noone From Nowhere]

After building a weapon like this, the next step is to manufacture an enemy!

This must be mounted to a cat.

Don't you mean sharks? Cats clearly would not be able to support the weight of a laser cannon. Unless you're talking big predator cats. Lions with lasers are indeed the stuff of nightmares.

I'm thinking Lazer Cat [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/doomsday-arcade/559-Episode-Four]. Duh.

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm behind on my Doomsday Arcade. Slight problem with "If I watch any more steadily updating videos on the internet I'm going to forget to breathe or something, see, I already forgot the punchline of that joke."

All of your video content is going to kill me!

You will watch our videos, and you will like it! Or face Lazer Cat!!

Actually, you sound more like Commandant Klink. But if your the Commandant, then who is Sgt. Schultz?

 

[Russ Pitts]

I'll let the boys in Team Hollywood fight over that honor. My question is, who's Hogan?

Myself, obviously.

All this money being put into something that can be foiled my a disco ball.

After note: I know lasers can't be stopped by a conventional mirror.

 

[Frizzle]

So when we blow up a Nuke coming from N. Korea... we're going to know it's launched and get a plane up in the air in time to blow it up ....where exactly? I mean, that cloud of explosive material and radiation has to go somewhere...

Mostly what I'm getting at is that it's better to do a "strike first" thing with non-nukes than to actually let them (them = anyone) get the missile off in the first place....

 

[Lullabye]

Now a use for the Canadarm.....you know... the thing on the ISS? A giant robotic arm.... *sigh.....well my point is we can noww use it to hold your giant laser thingy....Canada sucks....
