#4 If they can scrape up the funds these can be installed on the remaining half of the Royal Navy. Or we could just sell them to our enemies to use against us before we all submit to their demon-god.

#5 #3 But will it penetrate aluminum foil ?

Penetrateno, melt, yesput a small bit of foil on aceramic plate (that you don"t care about destroying)pop it in your microwave for a few seconds, and think of moonbat"s hair burning.

#9 I prefer the magnetic launch steel ball rail gun.
Can it reheat last night's pizza ? No, but it will crater the pizzeria neighborhood beyond recognition. It doesn't leave the enemy crouched in fear, it sends them running in all directions screeming 'Allan, you bastard, help us now.'
