Drones have become very fashionable these days. You almost can't attend a wedding without hearing the buzz overhead and getting photographed by those winged motherfuckers. Now apparently, Boeing has developed a very precise laser that can track and down a flying object. Reminds me of a friend who recently posted some pics he had made with a drone, and later reported that a flock of seagulls had mistaken his drone for an enemy bird, attacked it, and brought it down. The pic of the wreckage wasn't pretty at all. There had been quite a lot of feathers floating around after the skirmish, I expect. Now imagine that those nasty birds had been armed with lasers!!!1!1
Aaanyway; here's some footage of this laser in action:
