Plasma Acoustic Shield System
The Plasma Acoustic Shield System, or PASS, is in the process of being developed by Stellar Photonics. The company received a $2.7 million contract from the U.S. Government to build the PASS. It is part of a project supervised by the United States Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center The United States Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Armaments Center (CCDCAC), or Armaments Center, headquartered at Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey, is the US Army's primary research and development arm for armaments and munitions. .... The laser was first tested in 2008, and will continue to be tested into 2009, with the testing of turret-mounted PASS. Function The device is able to disorient an enemy using a series of mid-air explosions, and may also use "high-power speakers for hailing or warning, and a dazzler light source" Its low power would mean that it would be unable to do significant damage to a specific enemy. While it would not be classified as a wea ...
