Да тонны, только бульдозер подкатывай.
GLEF разработка корпы PICATINNY ARSENAL, которая постоянно поподает в доклады Human Rights Watch, т.к. разрабатывает вооружение которое и поднимает вопроссы законности его приминения.
Поехали, граната импульсного хим лазера под 40мм подствольник, тот же 1995 год и PICATINNY ARSENAL;

Тактическая лазерная винтовка действия на 1км 90х годов от Lockheed Sanders;Perseus Optical Munition
The Perseus "optical flash" 40mm rifle grenade projectile is similar to the Saber 203 developed by the Air Force. Perseus was developed by the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) as part of its "disabling technologies" program. It is managed by the U.S. Army Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center, Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey. Perseus works when the "Light from an explosion- induced shock-wave is used to pump an inexpensive plastic compact laser (CL) 'bullet' or 'optical flash' device..."[53] The grenade's pulsed chemical laser would put out a flash of intense white and laser light brilliant enough to temporarily blind people and sensors.[54]
The Army officially states that the Perseus program was cancelled in 1992,[55] but LANL was reported to be testing a more compact prototype in May 1993,[56] and sources state that LANL is still actively pursuing sponsorship and funding.
Тактическая лазерная винтовка Cobra;Dazer is a portable rifle-like, shoulder-fired, non-scanning, manually operated tactical laser weapon.[35] According to USSOCOM, the Dazer prototype "is not routinely issued for training and will only be issued as a result of USSOCOM SOJ3 [Director of Operations] direction. The Dazer is normally reserved for operational missions."[36]
The system, which is battery powered and self-contained, was developed under contract for the Army by Allied-Signal Electro-Optical Products Division, Westlake, California.[37] It consists of a ten pound laser rifle, a twenty-three pound electronics package, a battery pack, and an optical sight (Simrad KN-200 or KN- 250).[38] Dazer employs a short-range (about one kilometer) near infrared spectrum alexandrite laser beam, and was tested around 1989.[39] Dazer's battery life is in excess of 1,000 individual shots, and the system may be fired single-shot or in a burst of up to fifty shots per minute.[40]
According to USSOCOM, there are no approved safety procedures for Dazer. It warns in its internal Fact Sheet that:
-The system can be highly dangerous to users.
-The Dazer is a high powered Class IV laser - the laser beam is hazardous to the eyes and skin.
-The Dazer operates at peak power of 1600 amps at 1450 volts. This voltage is lethal.[41]
Dazer is the unnamed system the Office of the Secretary of Defense referred to in its March 27, 1995 letter to Senator Patrick Leahy and Representative Lane Evans when it stated, "Another laser system, intended for special missions (not battlefield use), can blind and is operational in very limited quantities."[42] No additional details are known about current Dazer funding.
К чему всё это?McDonnell-Douglas Electronic Systems Co. of McLean, Virginia, developed the Cobra for the Army. It is a portable, rifle-like, shoulder-fired, manually operated, non-scanning tactical laser weapon. Cobra was tested in 1989[57] and competed for the LCMS contract that was awarded to Lockheed Sanders. Cobra likely employs a diode-pumped neodymium laser (in the near infrared spectrum).[58] U.S. military sources have indicated to the Human Rights Watch Arms Project that McDonnell-Douglas is still actively pursuing sponsorship to continue development and production of Cobra.
Human Rights Watch особенно озабочено тем что использование тактических лазерных систем в спец операциях - таких как анти-снайперские миссии - в действительности могут иметь именно противопехотное использование, с ослеплением как предназначенным эффектом. (о мирном населении и речи нет)Human Rights Watch is particularly concerned that the likely uses of tactical laser weapons in special operations - such as in counter-sniper missions - may be inherently antipersonnel in nature, with blinding the exact intended effect.
Этого достаточно? А то год ещё 1995-й, в периуд Сомалийских разборок, а тут при Буше ТАКОГО накрутили что и бульдозером не отделаешся.

Подмечю что принимая во внимание габариты системы GLEF и уровень современной технологии диодных лазеров, режим "гуманного" ослепления с нажатием кнопки элементрано меняется на режим "вырви глаз".
И это не мои фантазии, а конкретное сокращение GLEF; "Green Laser Escalation of Force Kit" - Зелёный Лазер Силового Эскалационного Воздействия.
Это какая такая "эскалация"? От "слегка" ослепил до "совсем" ослепил?
А так между прочим исходные мощностя системы так и не огласили, ждёмсъ, так что нарушает "оно" чего либо неизвестно, инфо просто не разглашают, при этом зная что магазинные РУЧНЫЕ лазеры глаза выжигают не напрегаясь.
