Offense?

None taken at all.

Couldn't resist a chance to state the obvious.

Seriously though it's a promising avenue of research.
No doubt it will have it's limitations and there will be countermeasures that will defeat the teschnology if it comes to fruition.

But if it gives an edge against some oponents some of the time then surely it will be worth while.

Also on the plus side, the UK will surely share this technology with the colonial cousins.

If the cousins are lucky, they may be having to share the cake,

In the tradition of Chobham armour, self-sealing fuel tanks, the Whittle jet engine, plastic explosives, mirror landing sight, the gyro gunsight, GEE, angled flight deck, cavity magnetron, proximity fuse, steam catapult, flexible coupling and rafting for nuclear subs, Frisch-Peierls Memorandum, sub propulsors, etc.
