The Personnel Halting and Stimulation Response rifle was created as a non-lethal weapon for soldiers and law enforcement officials for hostile situations. In the past, blinding laser weapons have been tested, but were banned under the 1995 UN Protocol on Blinding Laser Weapons, which the United States acceded to on 21 January 2009.
Number Fourteen: Smart Bullet. The Smart Bullet was designed to have ultimate control. It can turn, speed up, slow down, and even send data back to the user. The bullet is four inches long and has small fins, making it look like a dart.
Number Thirteen: Dora Cannon. Developed by Nazis during World War II, the Gustav Dora Cannon, or merely the Dora Cannon, weighed 2.7 million pounds and was considered a superweapon.
Number Twelve: Vomit Gun Even though it may sound ridiculous, the vomit gun was very, very real. The Navy supported its development, and it was designed to be a non-lethal weapon.
Number Eleven: XM25 Smart Grenade Launcher Nicknamed by the Afghanistan soldiers as The Punisher, the XM25 smart grenade launcher was designed in 2010 for the United States troops in Afghanistan.
Number Ten: The CornerShot The CornerShot is a weapon explicitly designed so that the enemy will never see your eyes. A miniature camera and LCD screen sub in for the gunner as the front half of the rifle bends around corners to shoot targets without the operator having to come into the open.
Number Nine: The Trophy Active Defense System On their own, tanks are frightening machines. So what could make these heavily armored vehicles any more unstoppable? An invisible force field.
Number Eight: Metal Storm Metal Storm is an Australian company that has been developing a line of weapons that use stacked projectiles. Stacked projectile weapons are different from traditional guns, as they have no moving parts.
Number Seven: Cyborg Moths The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) has been working to develop cyborg spy moths. Darpa, the research arm of the Department of Defense, has already successfully implanted chips in cockroaches and rats, allowing humans to drive the animals with joysticks.
Number Six: The Navy's Railgun
The Navy is exploring the possibilities of trading the explosive energy of conventional warheads for kinetic energy using simple projectiles. It may sound like a step backward. But when you see the prototype railgun in action, firing a seven-pound shell at seven times the speed of sound, you start to understand the power generated by tremendous acceleration. With the finished product, a 5-meter target can be hit from 200 nautical miles away.
Number Five: Active Denial System The U.S. Air Force has borrowed a page out of the Marine's naming conventions book with a device more commonly known as the heat ray. The heat ray looks like a nondescript satellite dish, mounted on the back of a military-grade news truck.
Number Four: Airborne Laser The Air Force is on its way to having a modified 747 ready as early as 2009 to shoot down missiles from the sky with—you guessed it—a massive laser. Known as the Airborne Laser, the craft will house a multi-megawatt chemical oxygen-iodine laser capable of hitting a target many hundreds of miles away.
Number Three: Pigeon-projected missiles Another project, called Project Pigeon, was an effort to create a pigeon-guided bomb. The birds were trained using B.F. Skinner's operant conditioning to hone in on a target shown on a screen and then peck at it when they found it.
Number Two: The Pentagon's Laser-Induced Plasma Effect Weapon The Pentagon is working on a weapon that uses lasers and plasma to transmit sound files, even human speech, directly to individual people at great distances.
Number One: The Air Force's Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System Tech The laser weapon, which can be mounted onto the back of a vehicle, is designed to help the Air Force take down hostile drones…The laser itself can fire dozens of shots per charge, according to Raytheon.
