Russian President Vladimir Putin weaves the praises of Russian experimental energy weapons, and it is not a provocation.
It is, says Putin verbatim, of "Weapons present until recently only in science fiction". The Russian President made these enthusiastic statements about his future weapons during a meeting with military leaders, as reported by the Associated Press. Russian nuclear weapons are starting to show the signs of the years: that is why the program to develop super-technological weapons goes on. Modern Russian weapons, capable of keeping up. Especially in the age of US-created "space forces" and American secret weapons.
These are weapons that will determine Russia's military potential for decades to come, but they are not an isolated case: China, the UK and the US have also made massive investments in military lasers and energy weapons, especially plasma weapons. Research in this field has also led to laser cannons being placed on ships, tanks and planes.
In short, a class of science fiction weapons, new generation lasers is being born (they are also experienced by other countries) which may have an impact on selected targets similar to that which gunpowder had on a world still dominated by bows and arrows. Russian weapons "threaten" to be among the most advanced: a plasma weapon, let's not hide it, is light years ahead of the current ones, even the American ones. If we add that it can be 'wielded' by Russian experimental aircraft, we understand the extent of the damage it can cause to enemies. Secret Russian weapons can make even US secret weapons pale. Even nuclear ones.
It remains to be understood what the impact of these weapons of the future will be, which beyond the triumphal declarations of the Russian leader still remain secret weapons: on the other hand for Russia "secret weapons" means modern weapons. And "modern Russian weapons" means survival, I do not underestimate the leverage that powerful weapons, latest generation weapons such as those heralded can have.
Although the official Russian motivation for their release is that of "defense against drones" there is no latest generation weapon that has not been used sooner or later against flesh-and-blood soldiers, or worse civilians. And technological ones such as laser armament are certainly no exception.
