Future Weapons of War in the Works

An anonymous reader writes "Who needs explosive missiles when you can just launch a 3 foot long chunk of metal at near Mach 7 speeds and get the same result? Popular Science looks at weapons the military is developing for future wars including electromagnetic railguns, space darts, superfast torpedos, laser cannons, and a gun that fires a million rounds per minute."

    I think in the future wars will go something like this:

    1) Let invaders come
    2) Wait some time for things to cool down
    3) Start guerilla warfare
    4) ..
    5) Victory (no, not profit)
