That's a half hour of lasing of a sufficiently high energy level to cause radiation/heat harm to water-based entities (ie. high energy absorbing) at a half mile.
Even with some sort of capacitor charging, I don't know of anything that could do that, and whilst I'm not a laser scientist, it's a field that I have a passing interest in, having looked into CO2 and solid-state lasers for various somewhat destructive applications.
If this is anywhere near real, the reported $15k pricetag seems like a bargain! Where/when can I get one?

- dosy 8y agoonly China military and police for now. but no doubt there are prototypes doing the rounds.
