every system shown here have massive strategic flaws and weaknesses and are not even close to the level of the system's i can produce all of which are highly capable in effectiveness and use economically viable. means eg iron beam can be rendered useless with one simple adaptation to current methods.
This is a video of Israel's Iron Beam directed energy weapon in action: a powerful laser obliterating a drone in mere seconds. The test footage, released by the Israeli government, showcases one of the strongest practical laser combat weapons in existence, with 100 kilowatts of power.
Developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, the system has grown from an initial power of tens of kilowatts when first unveiled in 2016 to 100 kilowatts today – significant enough to incapacitate short-range projectiles such as rockets and UAVs at a distance of 7 to 10 kilometers...
This object was sighted on June 29, 2020 but was just post to Reddit. In the footage which is only six seconds we can this UFO move at some incredible speed and the movement of the craft is truly out of this world. While at the speed and movement the UFO maintains its cylindrical shape...
High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP): An ionospheric research program jointly funded by DARPA, the U.S. Air Force's AFRL and the U.S. Navy's NRL.[101] The most prominent area during this research was the high-power radio frequency transmitter facility, which tested the use of the Ionospheric Research Instrument (IRI).
Phoenix: A 2012–early-2015 satellite project with the aim to recycle retired satellite parts into new on-orbit assets. The project was initiated in July 2012 with plans for system launches no earlier than 2016.[107][108] At the time, Satlet tests in low Earth orbit were projected to occur as early as 2015.[109][needs update]
SIMNET: Wide area network with vehicle simulators and displays for real-time distributed combat simulation: tanks, helicopters and airplanes in a virtual battlefield.
I3 (Intelligent Integration of Information),[113] supported the Digital Library research effort through NSF
Strategic Computing Program
Synthetic Aperture Ladar for Tactical Applications (SALTI)
XOS: powered military exoskeleton $226 million technology development program. Cancelled in 2013 before the notionally planned 2015 launch date.[107][109]
DARPA is well known as a high-tech government agency, and as such has many appearances in popular fiction. Some realistic references to DARPA in fiction are as "ARPA" in Tom Swift and the Visitor from Planet X (DARPA consults on a technical threat),[115] in episodes of television program The West Wing (the ARPA-DARPA distinction), the television program Numb3rs[116]
