Earlier in the year, the US Navy deployed its first combat-ready laser weapon system in the Persian Gulf -- and now, after some field testing, we have a glorious video of the laser being used to blow up (unmanned) boats and drones. I'm happy to report that laser weapons are as awesome as you may have hoped.
