as a non-lethal weapon for  soldiers and law enforcement officials  for hostile situations in the past  blinding laser weapons have been tested  but were banned under the 1995 UN  protocol on blinding laser weapons which  the United States has ceded to on 21  January 2009 even though the phaser  rifle has a temporary blinding effect  and low intensity laser it's not  prohibited under this regulation it also  uses a 2 wavelength laser this rifle  fires lasers into the enemy's eyes and  blinds them temporarily the weapon uses  a rangefinder to make sure the lasers  aren't too intense it renders people  extremely disoriented at inopportune  moments number 14 smart bowling the D  shaped bullet contains a micro sensor  that detects acceleration and  deceleration the smart bullet was  designed to have ultimate control it can  turn speed up slow down and even send  data back to the user the bullet is 4  inches long and has small fins making it  look like a dart the shooter operates it  by shining a laser at its target and the  bullet will follow the target without  being deterred by strong winds one type  of smart bullet is a projectile that can  change its course during flight one use  of this would be to enable soldiers to  stay behind protective cover and shoot  around corners another implementation  uses a spoiler and a micro gyro to  control the bullet isn't that scary  number 13 the Dora cannon developed by  Nazis during World War 2 the Gustav Dora  cannon or merely the Dora cannon weighed  2.7 million  pounds and was considered a super weapon  the cannon could fire shells up to  fourteen thousand pounds and had a range  of 90 miles it was the world's most  massive gun heavy and complicated the  world's largest Dora ensemble is in the  military history museum in the bones var  in Dresden number 12  vomit gun non lethal weapon that induces  hallucinations and vomiting among enemy  combatants has been fitted to two  Russian warships even though it may  sound ridiculous  the vomit gun was very very real the  Navy supported its development and it  was designed to be a non-lethal weapon  the vomit gun can use radio waves to  penetrate walls and as the waves reach  the victims the victims will feel dizzy  and may get the urge to vomit though the  military eventually abandoned the  project two other people were able to  make a vomit gun out of spare computer  parts successfully number 11 the xm25  smart grenade launcher nicknamed by the  Afghan soldier says the Punisher the  xm25 smart grenade launcher was designed  in 2010 for the United States troops in  Afghanistan it's gas operated in  semi-automatic and it features a  ballistic computer environmental sensors  and a digital compass it can fire 25  millimeter shells up to 2300 feet and  soldiers can eerily program the shells  to explode at any time number 10 the  corner shot the corner shot is a weapon  explicitly designed so that the enemy  will never see your eyes a miniature  camera and LCD screen sub in for the  Gunners eyes as the front half of the  rifle bends around corners to shoot  targets without the operator having to  come into the open it works by mounting  a semi-automatic pistol to the hinged  front half with remote linkage to the  trigger at the rear and can swivel  through a 120 degree range number 9 the  trophy active defense system on their  own tanks are frightening machines so  what could make these heavily armored  vehicles anymore unstoppable how about  an invisible force field  okay the trophy active defense system  isn't  a force field but it's as close as any  countermeasure has yet come  the ATS can detect rocket-propelled  grenades and other low-tech munitions in  time to target and return pinpointed  fire destroying the munitions in midair  the ATS is capable of tracking multiple  targets in nearly any direction  rendering tanks with the equipment  roughly bulletproof number eight metal  storm metal storm is an Australian  company that's been developing a line of  weapons that use stacked projectiles  stack projectile weapons are differ from  traditional guns as they have no moving  parts instead of loading a bullet into a  chamber and having a mechanism such as a  hammer initiate its firing the metal  storm weapons use electronics to control  the firing sequence bullets are tightly  lined up within the gun they're packed  between an explosive fuel and the result  of which is a weapon that can fire at a  much higher rate than a traditional  automatic one bullet enters the barrel  before the last is left which creates a  torrent of ammunition with firepower  just like a high-powered comic-book  style laser number seven  cyborg moths the Defense Advanced  Research Projects Agency or DARPA has  been working to develop cyborg spy moss  DARPA the research arm of the Department  of Defense has already successfully  implanted chips and cockroaches and rats  allowing humans to drive the animals  with joysticks in the case of Moss the  chip will be inserted at the pupil stage  so that the animal grows around it and  develops a reliable tissue machine  interface the spy moth will then be  released at the front lines and remotely  piloted into enemy territory potentially  beaming back article and audio feeds along  the way number six the Navy's railgun  the Navy is exploring the possibilities  of trading the explosive energy of  conventional warheads for kinetic energy  using simple projectiles it may sound  like a step backward but when you see  the prototype railgun in action  firing a seven pound shell at seven  times the speed of sound you start to  understand the power generated by  tremendous acceleration with  the finished product the 5-meter target  can be hit from 200 nautical miles away  number five Active Denial system the  United States Air Force has borrowed a  page out of the Marines naming  conventions book with the device more  commonly known as the heat ray the heat  ray looks like a nondescript satellite  dish mounted on the back of a  military-grade news truck but instead of  gathering and focused radio waves coming  in the weapon focuses millimeter waves  similar to microwaves but shorter and  sends them out the effect of these waves  against human skin produces a sensation  of intense burning in which people are  reportedly only able to stand for a few  seconds the military claims the waves  penetrate the skin by only one  sixty-fourth of an inch and cause no  lasting damage however the system is  still in the early stages and is yet  unproven in the field number four  airborne laser the Air Force is on its  way to having a modified 747 ready as  early as 2009 to shoot down missiles  from the sky with you guessed it a  massive laser known as the airborne  laser the craft will house a multi  megawatt chemical oxygen iodine laser  capable of hitting a target many  hundreds of miles away at its core it's  the same basic technology as found in a  drugstore laser pointer only a billion  times more powerful while the aircraft  was scheduled for its first live target  test in 2009 the laser in the airplane  have yet to be tested together  number three pigeon projected missiles  another project called project pigeon  was an effort to create a pigeon guided  bomb the birds were trained using BF  Skinner's operant conditioning to homed  in on a target shown on a screen and  then pack at it when they found it the  project was scrapped in 1944 and then  revived in 1948 under the name project  or con eventually newer electronic  guidance systems proved to be more  valuable and exhibit at the American  History Museum in Washington DC details  the history of this avian instrument of  war  number two the pentagon's laser-induced  plasma effect weapon the Pentagon is  working on a weapon that uses lasers and  plasma to transmit sound files even  human speech directly to individual  people at great distances the lasers  could be beamed down from military  planes or other vehicles to issue  instructions to disperse crowds of  protesters or otherwise disgruntled  people in the area number one the air  force's counter unmanned aircraft system  Tec the laser weapon which can be  mounted onto the back of a vehicle is  designed to help the Air Force take down  hostile drones the laser itself can fire  dozens of shots per charge according to  Raytheon but the Air Force could also  hook it up to a generator to deliver a  nearly infinite number of shots the  contractor said we hope you enjoyed
