Star Wars Redux : The Coolest Laser Destruction Video You Have Ever Seen

This video shows the Israeli and US Air Force working on laser defense systems:





In field tests, U.S. and Israeli laser guns have shown the ability to melt holes in all kinds of munitions, rockets, international ballistic missiles, and what have you. Several American defense contractors are working to translate these results into battlefield tools in a hurry. Israel’s “Iron Dome” system -- or should they should call it Laser Dome? -- is already under construction.

Some thirty years after President Reagan brought us SDI, a.k.a. Strategic Defense Initiative, a.k.a. "Star Wars," we are actually at the threshold of achieving its main goals. And not a minute too late, I might add.

I’m sure everyone will enjoy this video except the mullahs in Teheran….
