Future weapon concepts (I might be evil)

[Punisher_1]

So I used to dream about designing various weapon systems. Mostly concepts because I'm not an engineer. Recently it has been discussed that Elon Musk's Starship could deliver people and cargo almost anywhere in the world within an hour give or take.

So combine this with Drone swarms.

A number of cargo rockets launch toward some particular conflict zone or a declaration of war. The cargo would be hundreds or thousands of drones. These drones have various capabilities ranging from control, scouting to anti armor or anti personnel. the drones could be pre-programmed to saturate a target with last-minute data and image recognition targeting software. This way even if the drone are jammed they can still carry out significant damage.

Low orbit satellites also can act as the control and targeting system for the drones as well as a number of military controlling units as needed.

Over all the drones saturate a number of targets even infiltrating structures , hangers and bunkers allowing few places to be safe. Even if these spaces are secure breaching drones can blast a hole and mini drone filter in to eliminate the targets. So while you do not need a 50-pound high explosive charge when a 1-pound charge in the right place could decimate almost any vehicle.

What this means is that entire airbases, Navy bases and yes even Army bases could be neutralized in less than 2 hours anywhere in the world. Essentially shutting down an entire nation's military assets in the time from the drop to impact in minutes. This prevents the enemy from responding in any meaningful conventional way.

A real version of Orgasmo’s gun would be effective and hilarious at the same time. Trey Parker is a genius 😂.

There are a lot of 'future weapon' concepts out there, but, they have to be reliable, relatively cheap, won't come back to bite you, easy to use & (most importantly) soldier-proof, these fuckers can break ANYTHING!

Future weapon concepts:
1. The cancer gun. A gun that fires bullets full of somebody's malignant cancer cells.
2. Parachute Wolves. Instead of dropping bombs, aircraft drop wolves on parachutes into enemy territory. On landing the wolves run loose and kill everybody because they were deprived food for several days beforehand, also they're high on meth.
3. Stink mines. Small landmine-like devices that when stepped on squirt a noxious skunk spray, 1,000 times more concentrated than skunk, directly up into the person's face. The smell is so strong it induces vomiting but does not injure. The effect is instead directed on a psychological level in that it forces the other soldiers to keep in contact with the smelly soldier making everyone's lives very miserable and the smelly soldier ostracised.
4. Crying Decoy. A tiny AI-powered microphone/receiver programmed to cry and shout for help in the language of the enemy. Uses voice recognition to generate convincing responses to enemy's calls to it. Can be programmed to simulate a child or wounded comrade. Can be paired with booby-trap to kill anyone who finds it. It is about the size of a soda can.
5. War Rabbits. Wild jack rabbits that have been soaked in kerosene and set alight. Can be airdropped by the hundreds over villages.

to control a small death star would be nice

Ya the idea uses one way drones or suicide drones most so nothing left to learn and chances are they would have some sort of dead man switch if messed with disabled or the like anything simple from frying the logic boards and the like.

You need help but I like your humor.

1. cancer gun, takes to long and cruel.
2. Air dropped wolves, I like animals so no.... but robot dogs sure why not.
3. Stink mines is a great idea even for crowd control. you just have to make a decontaminate product to clean up the area and whatnot.
4. Crying decoy, could kill civilians which is bad. Recently in a show they used dogs stuck them in razor wire or the like and when soldiers went to save the dog they would bow up the dog. The CIA has used cats in a simular way.
5. War rabbit, I'm not thinking they survive the fall let alone enough to burn before death. Of course, you heard of fire sparrows and bats? those were real thing. They also did this with horse long ago.

The CIA made a heart attack gun, people have tried to make cancer rays but I’m not sure if anyone has succeeded.

I know there are laser “weapons” that produce an invisible beam that can basically instantly and permanently blind you. There is also something called an ADS that shoots microwaves and causes the target to feel like they’re on fire, vehicle-mounted versions are used during riots sometimes. I am unable to find the links atm but I have read that supposedly in the days immediately preceding the Rwandan genocide some alphabet agency was flying helicopters around the area. Somehow the helicopters were broadcasting some signal that causes increased aggression. I’m not sure how true it is but at the time I first found it I googled the name of the operation and it seemed to be a real thing.

Directed energy weapons are the future.

I'm a bit concerned about those War Rabbits.

The War Rabbit idea was just an attempt at parody in regard to the medieval War Pig which was the same thing but a pig covered in tar and set on fire, and that's all it did was run around on fire making squealing noises, I can't imagine they did much more than act as a psycological force to scare people.

LMFAO at war rabbits! The most interesting idea not developed because of feasibility was the «”rod of God”, or a tungsten pole launched from orbit to a target on the ground. No explosives needed, kinetic energy would obliterate everything.

The cancer gun really exists, but it works by emitting gamma radiation. Very similar to a hospital x ray but a concentrated beam. There is no evidence to prove this is being used or not. A weapon like that would be banned under the Geneva convention.
The crying decoy is in use. Sets off a mine or some other explosive . Very sneaky weapon.

6. A Gorilla-Human hybrid super soldier. Half man, half congolese lowland silverback gorilla, armed with two shoulder-mounted .50 cal automatic rifles.
7. Anti Bravery spray. An estrogen-derivative hormonal imbalance inducing fog that can be sprayed on enemy formations from airplanes. When inhaled it inhibits testosterone and renders the soldier meek, fearful and woman-like on the battlefield.

Flaming pigs were only good for spooking war elephants, they'd panic and crush the dudes in their own lines. Probably worked on horses too.
