      Cheap.

      According to the MoD, the DragonFire typically costs less than £10 [$12.70] per shot, meaning the laser "has the potential to be a long-term low-cost alternative to certain tasks missiles currently carry out."

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              Mirror is still about “visibility.”

              Should ask “what wavelengths.”

                I assumed that Mik was referencing line of sight, which would be a limitation for the weapon.

                    I just found out my company was involved with this weapon. Clearly I’m not working in the right business unit! Insert image of Dr Evil and “lasers”

                      They'll tell you about it when the FBI starts to use it for antifa riot control.

                      Oops, my bad! The Feds don't control antifa riots....
