The Northrup Grumman Hellhound, which has a 30mm remote- controlled cannon mounted on top and a laser that
can shoot down enemy drones, was on display Tuesday at the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference.

Wonder if that Hellhound’s laser can shoot down doves and ducks? Maybe cook ‘em on the way down...

“a major annual confab that brings military commanders together with defense contractors to figure out what commandos need in a dangerous and ever-changing world”

Like the pudgy one in the photo? Headshake

Now, I don’t know the newspaper that is reporting this. The reporter is probably like the normal who sees an AK47 every time he sees a rifle.

Plenty of Barney Fifes there hoping to beef up their department when the new budget comes in.

Wow, a robot that can do a pull up. Big deal.

I coached a US FIRST high school robotics team. A few years ago, our robot which weighed over 150 lbs and cost less than $2000 could shoot Frisbees and do pull ups.

We had to tone down the Frisbees. Before we slowed the motor, they were shooting at well over 50 mph.
