Heat Ray Gun Fails Final Test; Nixed From War

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the it-burns-mommy dept.

eldavojohn writes "The heat ray gun to be deployed in Afghanistan has failed its final test and will not be deployed. US military commanders who have had it in the field now have declined to use it. After being tested more than 11,000 times on around 700 volunteers, it failed to achieve satisfaction from the military and will not be deployed."
