Challenger Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 To bad they probably never really get to use it. Heres the video from Future Weapons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DRmuljq9yw&feature=related Found this one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete84 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 That High Impulse Weapon System sure is interesing, says 76mm round, wonder what weight on the round / charge. Perhaps direct fire motor round? Modern rocket systems can be fired in rooms, the backblast used to make that a deathwish. This would be alot cheaper and easier to supply than one use disposable rockets. Can't imagine that the Metal Storm system would be used in such large formations without a better rearming system. Hand loading each barrel on a 24 round launcher, makes more sense to just use a battery of normal automatic grendade launchers adapted to be used in a more accurate system. Very awesome though!!

I think the idea behind it is a fire once, all at once, scenario, take out a whole troop in one quick barrage, and if you had say, 3 people reloading each gun, who had done a fair deal of practice, they could do it rather quick I would say.

Challenger Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Yeah, I saw they were thinking of putting it on a C-130, a whole bunch of them, fly over something and hbhbhbhbhhhsdhbgfsdfbsdljhgbsaljhgba.
