Just imagine how powerful a kinetic energy round traveling at a speed of 5000 miles per hour would be! It could beat every tank easily! Not hardkill system would help against it.

For portability uses. The item needed to cool it ~ dry ice. The power needed ~ static maybe? Just need a portable and efficient capacitor to store it in.
