A new force field like system has been developed by General Dynamics to protect tanks and other military vehicles from incoming fire. The test results which were announced not that long ago state that the system worked without problems.
The system works by placing several sensors such as sensors and flat-panel radar strategically around the protected vehicles. When an incoming threat is detected and identified the countermeasure device is activated. The countermeasure device is positioned in the direction where it can effectively intercept and disable the threat and is launched automatically to neutralize the threat at a relatively long, safe distance. This protects the vehicles from damage or danger.

prism towers first then mirage tanks...
in about 10yrs this will be a handheld device
that Trophy is design to form a "beam" of fragments, which will intercept any incoming HEAT threat, including RPG rockets at a range of 10 – 30 meters from the protected platform.
this is very interesting stuff...
Makes me think, if we have access to things like google earth, what are the army n stuff using? (has anyone watch enemy of the state)
