@askjerry they shot down moving unmanned aircraft with something similar to this already :O

@markushanson11 Dummy torpedoes dont' have a propulsion system nor a guidance system. Its common for it to 'squirt' after going into the water.
-
back when i was on this ship we fired a dummy torpedo and it turned around and hit us
-
It's probably computer controlled, but I think your point about the 50mm is pretty valid.
-
I was assigned to this ship in 1998 and served aboard until her decommissioning in 2003. As a former member of this ship's crew, I'm glad to see she's still contributing, even though she's the last of her kind. Go Foster, First Among the Finest!

I work on the test ship =] believe it or not it's real and it does work.
-
@rezuhrekted how do you out maneuver the speed of light? and aiming is a simple mirror servo such as used in lasershows, tracking is ultra fast
-
@askjerry doubt the Navy all you want, bro. Your loss.

I have a problem with believability... you have a target ship bobbing up and down at least 3 feet or so... another ship also bobbing up and down at least the same amount... and an optical system trying to maintain the correct positional location in three axises. The contact point isn't moving an inch.
Have you ever tried to point a laser pointer at a moving object? If they can do that... it's more impressive than the laser... lock on and put a 50mm round through it... and call it a day
