The US Army is developing the world's most powerful laser weapon!

Very cool. Don't mess with the US Army!

Lol. We may also be in competition with Israel since they reportedly have "Jewish space lasers" targeting people from space.

I take it VERY seriously. Looking forward to the day where this tech trickles down to my car and I can use it on slow drivers hogging the left lane.

Yes just imagine BMW offering the Ultrashort Pulse Laser (UPL) option on their vehicles. Something tells me it would be quite popular. Forget about the tame laser lights! I wanna blast 1 terawatt at that driver who would rather look at his phone instead of going when the light is green.

Not that I’ve thought about this at all, but you know that would have to completely obliterate so there is no debris field to drive through.
