"Shock waves are produced by a sophistiated machine called Lithotripter by passing a high voltage electrical discharge through a spark gap under water. The shock waves thus produced are focussed on the stone inside the patients body, which is localised with the help of a machine called C-Arm Image Intensifier. The shock waves produce a compressive force and the brittle stones start to crumble into small sand like particles which are passed out in urine."
Beef up the size of the machine 50 or 60 fold and you have a nice underwater weapon.
I actually thought of this idea ages ago. Should have patented it, ohh well.... back to writing my Formal Test Plan.
