Novel Munition Technologies to Attack and Defeat Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)
SBC: HYPERION TECHNOLOGY GROUP INC Topic: DTRA143004Traditional weapon systems often fail to meet the requirements of close combat typical of the previously discussed engagement, where insurgents often blend in or store weapon amongst friendly or non-combatant forces, to shield them from precision strike munitions of a technologically superior force. This type of warfare has led to an increased focus on the use of less-lethal weapons, to reduce let ...
