The most dangerous thing in the world is a Second Lieutenant with a map and a compass.
Is this real ?

wow, think of how much weight could be reduced in armor if this system was really effective
Mr.ReyesApr 22, 2006 6:01am
so it's a bit misleading. it's really not a "shield", it's more like a dome of active coverage. anything that comes into that active coverage will be met with a counter punch.

I have a question.

maybe it uses the radar to track it in a distance and if it is getting closer it would stop it and hte opposite for outgoing?
El_TigreApr 22, 2006 6:50am
yea, it did say that it classifies the object, and then tracks it, so that should eliminate all other small items, i.e. the rocks, and wall shards
Mr.ReyesApr 22, 2006 6:52am
in the article it said "heat" projectiles, so a hand grenade or anything like that will be it's achilles heel.

Where did you get that the blocks jump off? i didnt say i was sure about how it worked lol. i got it form my encyclopedia of armored fighting vehicles. i must have taken it out of perspective. plus it kinda made sense to me with the picture.
