Re: Marine Corps develops non lethal weapon

Yes, fascinating technology. (I love radios, RF, you name it.)

Some of the devices they are using RF are based. Other equipment is actually sound waves - and they can modify the pulses to stop a person's heart. Nasty.

In some ways, it's worse than lead because it is invisible, travels at the speed of light, is totally silent, and will have incredible range. (Compared to standard issue assault rifles.)

It's like fighting against a laser weapon. No time to duck and the re-positioning is instantaneous.
