The US military plans to deploy the Active Denial System weapon, a "less lethal" pain gun, in Iraq next year, but the system is already causing concern among scientists. The weapon is intended to be used as a riot control device, firing a 95GHz microwave beam at a crowd, causing heat and intolerable pain in less five or fewer seconds. But in tests at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico, it's been reported that participants were told to remove eyeglasses and contact lenses to protect their eyes, and take any coins or other metal objects out of their pockets to keep "hot spots" from developing on their skin. Yikes, what do you have to do to draw that assignment?
Dave's not here man!!!!
I too once hit a gopher with a stick.
READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
This weapon uses the same microwave technology as in your home units;yet this is a industrial grade microwave element.
This thing will burn anyone wearing metal seriously. the danger of high conductive metal such as silver and gold jewelry cold burn through skin like a hot knife through butter. This weapon uses a wide deflection device and pulses wich are lower powered. luckily they do not use a focusing dish which would burn and boil the flesh exploding that area by exciting the molecules in that area. DANGER!!!!
IF....They decided to use a high power setting.
well lets just say it would be less painful than being burned alive!
This is the cruelist thing ever invented and is literaly able to be adapted as a death ray.
No joke if you take a microwave element and shoot it into a parabolic dish it would focus on an item and destroy it. example.... it would boil a small animals body while burning it and cooking it from inside out. So powerful it could burn the vinyl siding off a house. That is only a house hold low voltage microwave element. So telling you this what do you think the industrial one does at full power?????????? SCARY INFO I JUST TOLD YOU EH!
