Infrared laser can be reflected by a panel of glass, which lower frequencies can penetrate in certain angels. Water vapor in air is neither opaque nor an object but it does have a refractive affect on uniform light beams that hit untold numbers of tiny water droplets that slightly affect the way the light ray exits each droplet in turn.
      Once the uniformity of the beam disperses your HEL-MD is mostly attributing to global warming, instead of directing its energy towards that one incoming mortar shell it needs to light up for a period of time for it to heat up enough to explode.

    Those other ones u are seeing are different, the one with the angles, that sorta look like a tank turret it fires slower but fires a bigger round that explodes near the incoming object destroying it with shrapnel. Its not rate of fire based like the c ram. Britains goalkeeper is also a very good design. Theres also a twin barrel varient that also shoots missiles, thats atm the most potent ciws, the russian one, i forget its name. But its pretty lethal, it fires faster, has 2 barrels and bigger rounds. All the american one has over it is better coding and is more responsive. The phalanx when they worked caus they were known for not working at all for a while when we first had them, but after they did worked they proved to be really quick and twitchy. Im sure the US system has the best internals, tracking and electronics, but its not the biggest puncher of them all.

      Yeah, the unlimited ammo bit is waay off base. When it comes down to it, limited energy is what makes all ammo limited.
      The only reason we don't collect spent ammo and remelt it into new ammo is that it takes much more energy than simply starting from new raw materials. And of course, _new_ metal is limited, but the total amount of metal on the Earth has never changed.
      Same thing with gunpowder. Unlimited energy allows you to collect the ashes and reverse the chemical process that explodes it.

      Right. And while battery technology is not even energy-dense enough for large e-planes, energy availability is (ultimately) the reason that all ammo is limited.
      We know that the amount of materials on the Earth never changes; and we know how to recycle ♻️ metals, and how to undo chemical reactions like the one that explodes gunpowder; but we don't have a power-efficient way to collect and reconvert all of it.

    its actually very cost-ineffective, which is probably the main reason why we dont see similar systems in other large armies (Russia for example), just as stated in this video its most likely gonna get replaced soon I dont think it will get replaced by lazors tho, most likely it will be something like APS (active protection system) for tanks, basically a small "grenade" launcher that fires to intercept and explodes in close proximity to target.

    C-RAM (Counter-Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar) is a highly effective system used to defend against incoming attacks. It utilizes advanced radar and computer systems to detect and destroy enemy missiles before they can reach their target. C-RAM has been successfully deployed in several conflict zones around the world, including Iraq and Afghanistan. Its ability to rapidly detect and react to incoming threats has made it a valuable asset for military forces. Overall, C-RAM's effectiveness in thwarting attacks is a testament to the power of advanced technology in modern warfare.

    So C-RAM is essentially CIWS (close-in weapon system) placed on land and with different ammunition. I imagine the tracer rounds would also be beneficial when used with CIWS to aid visual confirmation and identification. I often travel to Portsmouth in the south of England (apparently the largest naval station in Europe) and they often have Royal Navy ships docked for resupply. The last time I was there they had HMS Defender in port and I was also lucky enough to see the famous HMS Illustrious (her crew often called her 'Lusty') many years ago and to see these Phalanx canons up close sends a shiver down your spine. They look foreboding and like something from the future. To be clear I don't mean I saw the Phalanx system on Illustrious as she was using Goalkeeper CIWS but all the older ships using that system were eventually swapped for the Phalanx other than Illustrious which was scrapped in 2010.

    The M61A1 also fires at 6000 RPM. It is typically set there for fighter installation. Notably it is set at 3900 for the F 35. Not really sure why. It has been capable of 6000 RPM since it's creation and was set at that since it's first aircraft appearance on the F 104 in 1959.
