    Incredible weaponry.Wouldn't it be nice to use it for peace instead of profit.

    Why not use it for both. Companies making profits has worked pretty good for a long time. May the local PD's could get one for fleeting felons. I guess it will be a while before the local guys can afford them, but Star Wars may be closer than we think it is.

    Why do you limit the choices to one OR the other? There are probably additional options that the army, or the other military services have as well.

    I am not limiting.It just seems when things are profit motivated things get out of control from the criminal element.In my neck of the woods the criminals have the cash

    It IS used for both. Gives our troops some peace from mortars and drones, while making a profit for the company which manufactures it. This thing is DEFENSIVE (for now), the peaceful part of war.
