#8  "You don’t even have to start by lasing. You can launch it, just as long as you get the laser on it before it hits its apogee and starts coming down. For a long shot like that, you could probably lase 15 seconds after launch.”

There are possibilities here.

#2  Next a mini-nuke for its delivery package, allowing integrated troops with disabilities (ITDs) to have massive fire power from their tracked wheelchairs. (do I need to put a /sarc on that?)
