    But they’re replacing the iron dome with the iron beam which is lasers so it’s like infinite ammo as long as they’re electricity. Problem solved, right!?

      an escalation of asymmetric warfare? sure, why not? the issue is more of a technical one, you have to hold the laser beam on the moving target for long enough for it to heat up the missile casing enough that it goes kerplodey - but hey, if you’ve got that covered then why stop there? I wouldnt mind having a beam rifle, would make sniping a dream…
