Army Developing Laser That Shoots Lightning « CBS DC: PICATINNY ARSENAL, N.J. (CBSDC) – Soon, superheroes such as Thor won’t be the only ones who are able to use lightning to destroy their target.
U.S. Army personnel at Picatinny Arsenal are developing a military weapon that is able to shoot lightning bolts down laser beams, destroying any potential target with enough power to fuel a large metropolitan city.
The development of the Laser-Induced Plasma Channel comes as the military places more emphasis on eliminating targets that conduct electricity at a better rate than their environmental surroundings in the air and on the ground, according to the U.S. Army.
