Cool laser weapon, but why...............

The laser only took out one engine and ensuing fire did the balance of the damage. If I was running the test I would have insisted on a single engine boat to kill. It would make my test look better. Also, I don't know the range but if you put a mini gun and a rocket launcher on the boat they killed you'd have a pretty awesome combination. Personally, I would rather see the Opti's explode into a cloud of aluminum vapor, "Quicksilver Style". The slow burn down worked but I am too practical. Umm, how many people in the air and on the sea does it take for the laser to work? If it is a point and shoot. Turn it up...
 
they probably figured the laser was going to take a while and they didn't want the motors to corrode off the boat before the laser got them
 
In 1979 I was a machinery broker buying some equipment from a company called Holophane in NJ that make nothing but special lights. (They made the night lights for the space launches) I watched them shoot a laser into another laser, and then that beam into a third laser, and then that beam into yet another laser... and then that beam destroyed a cinder block in about 1/5 of one second.. just a bang and the block had this huge hole in it. Then the company moved literally overnight to a new location and I never heard from them again... how very strange...:head:
