Northrop Grummen engineers have developed an electric laser strong enough to blast an aircraft out of the air. Like Star Trek and Star Wars, and well, lots of movies, books, TV shows – yahoooo!

I know those guys love their job! This laser is powered by generated electricity which means it can be deployed in just about anything that can produce it’s own power. Wow! Much better than a Taser!
