Well, there was that time just before I first met you in person that I asked the lord for something to make me feel just a little less ugly... :P

They already do this with ship-mounted gatling guns. I believe lasers are being worked on to ablate and knock down shots, too; pretty sure missiles and meteorites have been done already (satellites too, quite sure).

They had to activate hyper mode to shoot down the plane though.

Um...pretty sure that's a Thermo-Nuke. :roll:
The world would be a better place if there were less shooters and more dot-eaters.

It's only a fake 1cc if they did test runs beforehand. Know the terminology!
