    it was ridiculously expensive and almost useless. it’s a tank sized dazzler, and it’s also very visible to everyone when in use

    today we have more powerful lasers that are also more compact, lighter and more efficient. i heard there’s some use in missile defense, and that even some combat shootdowns happened, but it’s still highly experimental and needs power source. fine on CVN, less so on land
