Not sure on the size Orph - fairly big? Definately worth a watch though. Here's some more info on it:

pretty amazing. it only describes the mechanism as a 'beam of fragments'

13 megs and.. Wowzers.

That seems even better than the phalanx. And thats one cool defensive weapon in itself.

Read about this one in Popular Science a while ago, it's pretty sweet stuff. : >

One day you'll know what you're talking about, I can hardly imagine

Maps! - Audio blog!

cool tech, lame analogy though. It's a point defense system :razz:

The more 'force field' like development was that electrical charge that dissipated rounds on contact... footage from that showed this vehicle just shrugging off blast after blast.

Well, I found the old write-up, at least. Old being the key word.

No idea what the current status is; I had no idea it was from that long ago.

This reminds me about an article I once read about a suit that reflects the light around it in way it makes the wearer invisible (Predator anyone?). I wonder if this is just a prototype idea or if it already works in the field?

Youre talking about this one?

[/url] So, who wrote that article? Oh that's right, CNN likes to not put names on things that aren't true.

I agree with KFS. The explanation is far exaggerated. It's still a cool piece of work. However, taking how rudimentary it is, it's almost dumbfounding as to why it isn't already in use. I can only assume it isn't very reliable. Which would make sense.
