Airborne Laser (ABL) ready for flight testing
Its about time they roll this damn thing out!
 When I worked on this project way back when, they had a little problem with the gas released after firing the laser. Apparently it was so hot, it would melt the rear elevator off if they fired it! I guess they fixed that little annoyance.-S http://news.independent.co.uk/world/...cle1938371.ece
