Default Mosquitoes become the first causlties of lasers in place of missiles.

Now after failing to use laser in falling missiles we have been successful in killing the mosquitoes. Jeff Hecht the master of crazy & wild ideas created it.
The Pentagon's laser death rays is celebrating its 50 years but they have not been able to torch a tank or a missile till now.
Its good that these pest die in place of missiles as then we will be able to save the world from malaria.
Hecht claimed it will be in production in one years.
Some of the Projects that had come dud till now:-
1.Zeus : A turret mounted laser Humvee.
2.ABL: Airborne Laser( 4Billion $) can barely fit into a retrofitted 747.
3. THEL: Tactical High Energy Laser : to shoot down short range rockets


Source : IEEE Spectrum magazine Pg. 5 & 28. This was not such humorous that I have made that myself.
You can probably find this in spectrum website. There were two articles :Ray guns get real. & Lasers great & small.
