Witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational laser from Lockheed Martin. The victim: a small truck, which was disabled “in a matter of seconds” from more than a mile away by the device.
The 30-kilowatt laser burned through the truck’s engine manifold while the vehicle was mounted on a test manifold, the company announced earlier this week. While not ready for the battlefield yet, Lockheed Martin thinks its laser is destined for greater things.
