See my #135.

By the way, I worked for 35 years in the design of radar and electro-optical fire control systems for many of the systems that operated in Operation Iraqi Freedom. To design and implement a system that would acquire, track and shoot down artillery rounds from 30,000 to 40,000 artillery pieces would require one hell of a system. And the lasers would require several Hoover dams to provide the power needed.
