Railguns! Is There Any Happiness They Can’t Bring?

[U.S. Military’s Most Powerful Cannon – Electromagnetic Railgun – Shoots 100 miles – Mach 7] (Viewer #1,927,865)

Sadly, too much of this is outdated marketing propaganda from railgun makers, but it still gets me tingly thinking this is nearly deployed.

Plus the images of the actual damage it does are pretty sweet.

Also please enjoy this footage of a railgun’s rapid-reload system

  1. OH !
    MY !
    GOD !
    We just won the next war.
    The Commies are rattling their sabers just now and it is no coincidence we just now declassified this system.
    Think twice, Putin. Think twice Xi. Think twice NoKo.

  2. If my calculations and correct, assuming the projectile maintains mach 7 over a range of 100 miles – that gives an enemy about 70 seconds to react if they get instant intel on the launch. A minute to pray – 10 seconds to die.
