Looks like the monster may get to see some action after all.

Wow, I never thought this star wars thingy would ever actually make it to an actual combat zone, keep us updated!

As long as we're on crazy non-leathal weapons. Do you guys know if the direction sound area denial weapon or the flashing green light freak-out weapon ever made it to Iraq?

If they did, I haven't heard. I just talked to our field engineer today. He works on Predators and a couple of other systems. We talked for quite a while but this is all he mentioned.

Wow I would never have thought they would actually deploy this weapon within a few years.

I think I've read in the news about checkpoints in Iraq using the dazzler on cars approaching too fast.

It sure makes for an outstanding torture weapon, because it leaves no marks on the victim.
