I have seen video of the aiming/accuracy and the stopping power problems of 30mm chain gun usage from apaches. Hellfire being too much often and they are designed for anti armor and sometime don't have the anti infantry effect they need, the 1 pound of explosive coming from a hydra hitting in the 2 to 10 meter accuracy of laser and gps sounds like a great idea. Watching the video of the Hydras now is pretty tough to watch they are wild. Also what is so different about a 250 pound bomb and the 500 pound low coloateral damage munition?

If it's for real, it'll let any Hydra 70mm/2.75" pod launch laser guided PGM. That would turn any Navy/USMC system that can carry a rocket pod into a sharpshooter, at a relatively low price. If they can work in an ability to hit GPS waypoints on Block Two, you'd have a relatively cheap PGM for indirect fire from air, sea or land. Sometimes "quantity has a quality all its own", and swarming carries the day. APKWS is a good fit for that. What about APKWS?

That's the replacement for HARM, with the added bonus of being accurate even when the enemy is smart enough to switch off their radar. I'm also a little surprised the Navy's HyFly hypersonic program didn't make the cut either. I wonder what the air force's list would look like? My guess is that it would start with a replacement for AMRAAM and work it's way down. I’m stunned that AARGM didn’t make the list.

Theres nothing really thats to far away from becoming a reality, like direct energy beams. Cool stuff. Theres nothing really thats to far away from becoming a reality, like direct energy beams.
