#futurewarfare

Ok before we continue i must say its actually one of my favorite stories to tell even back in the day..

Ahem ahem… year around 2014 -2015 and our story mainly surrounds around LIP-C or laser induced plasma channel might say..  its simply works like this.. imagine like.. You use a laser as cable…

As you can remember the basic rules of electricity. Normally, air is an insulator right. It wants to stop electricity from moving. That’s why you don't get electrocuted every time you stand near a power line. For electricity to travel through the air, it needs a path of least resistance… which is exactly what a lightning bolt is.

So, how do you force a lightning bolt to go exactly where you want it? You build it a wire. Out of thin air.

Here is how the LIPC actually works:

First, the system fires a femtosecond laser. This is a laser pulse that lasts for a fraction of a trillionth of a second. It is so fast, and the light is so intense, that as it travels through the air, it literally rips the electrons right off the air molecules. What’s left behind is a microscopic, glowing filament of ionized gas called plasma. Once its triggered the system dumps a massive, high-voltage electrical charge down the line. The electricity follows the laser's path of least resistance, slamming into the target with the force of a localized lightning strike and once its reached the target receiver.. congratulations, you just delivered an electrical pulse with information in it..

Ok this was an amazing experiment within most of the labs back in the day but.. thing is.. once the government or should I say the army finds out about this experiment they instantly thought to make it a WEAPON out of it...

to be fair this method was proposed somewhere around 1975'ish but.. again...

*Deep Sigh* I know.. i know.. its sounds… UGGGH!!!  GOD PLEASE JUST STOP RUİN EVERY IDEA YOU BERELY UNDESTAND.. THIS HAD A HUGE REVOLUTIONARY POTENTIAL FOR DAILY LIFE.... Anyway…

Idea was just removing the reciever and shoot a high voltage whererever you direct it sounds simple right? Something like this *might’ve* kept as secret right?

Well there was a well known factor about americans which i love so much… you guys obviously dont know how to keep secrets i mean cmoon.. like CMON! 

Really? Only couple days had passed and it was on the news already..

i mean who would’ve thought experiment like this can start a silent decade long battle right?

i actually need to note here during this times focus had to change from generated electric based weapons to laser based weapons which led to requirement of "classification" of these weapons because it was really new during the time.

Which led to small time arms race over between east and west all over again.. First US then Canada.. Brits.. Turks.. Chinese.. Russians.. You name it… Some of the well known laser based weapons such as ZM-87, YAL-1 RAF P-8, LAWS, SOKOL ESHELON, ALKA was invented during this timeframe.. Personally.. DUDE! IT WAS INCREDIBLE TIMES TO LIVE IN TECH…

Even BOTH NATO and UN had to interviene with it to stop it untill this starts another cold war at some point…

After the ban of usecases of laser and plasma based weapons on the battleground we thought its over but.. SIKE… Not even a week passed… NOT EVEN A WEEK PASSED!! There was a video circulating within the darknet a russian man sitting on his couch presenting and also demonstrating his handheld copy of LIP-C and saying he is ready to sell dosens of dosens of this gun already.. Unfortunately i could’nt find the exact video but i remember watching it…

as for closing notes.. please mind we are wayy more advanced as society but we're only using these in name of war..

see you guys when i have write something about :)

Oh! And heres your sources:

Starship Troopers - Robert A. Heinlein

This is an internal look at how a collective dictatorship remains in power through coercive control.

This story is told through the eyes of Ricco as he is trained to be a mobile infantryman for Earth.

Shortly after he joins war starts against the 'Bugs'. We follow Ricco's career as he moves through the ranks.

Do not be mistaken - this is not an action war novel.

The training and conflict are merely the canvas that Heinlein uses to describe the way human society is now controlled by the leaders.

But this is not a political story either. Ricco isn't involved in politics inside or outside the military.

I would say that the key parts of the novel happen while Ricco is at training camp and then at officers' training. There is a spattering of flashbacks to a civics-style class that is taught by veterans and is compulsory for every member of this society.

These settings allow Heilein to have his teachers give us/Ricco diatribes about the world and why it has to work in the way it does.

It shows how a society gives itself over to complete control of the ruling class without actually showing us any of that control.

We are simply told that the world is idyllic. There is little crime and little police. Punishments are severe but we only see them dealt out under military court-martials. 

Because we are only given the theory of the way this society may run we just have to take Heinlein's word for it. Fights with alien races bookend these discussions.

We follow the war through the eyes of the trooper so we have no idea what is going on. Just one combat scenario to the next.

The only time we have any idea at all is in the last battle when Ricco is first Lieutenant. Because of his rank, we get more of the picture of the battle and the state of the war.

So this is a war story with very little war. It's a commentary on the power and control of a populace, but the theory of this only.

The thought experiments that we go through are very interesting. Some of them are very believable and some are just incorrect. Like Heinlein's take on the Marxist definition of value.

It must have been a nightmare to market this work because if you do it as a war and combat book that crowd will be bored.

I can see how we ended up with movies that are in no way faithful to the source material because there isn't a story here. Most certainly not in any conventional sense.

Having said all of this I loved it. Heinlein has an incredible way with words and the lectures are fascinating. 

It’s 2050, and the world is fighting a new kind of war. Traditional weapons are things of the past; now, the battlefield is filled with children transformed into superhuman warriors. Created in secret labs and bioengineered from birth, these kids were designed to be the ultimate soldiers, with enhanced strength, endurance, and abilities that push them beyond anything human.

These “superchildren” have known nothing but control since they were born. From their first moments, they’re programmed and conditioned, stripped of choice and feeling. Their training is brutal, aimed at making them faster, stronger, and harder to kill. They’re taught to operate weapons just by thinking, to heal rapidly, and to survive in the harshest environments. Family, love, and even freedom are concepts they’ve never known.

But now, something unexpected is happening. These children are starting to think for themselves. The loyalty that was meant to bind them to their creators is unraveling, and these superhumans are seeking out others like themselves, forming their own kind of family. What began as a way to control war has turned into a global uprising. Countries are no longer fighting each other—they’re facing an army of their own creations who are tired of being used as tools.

The world is divided. Some people, horrified by what’s happening, have joined the rebellion alongside these children, believing they deserve a chance at a real life. Others, though, see these superhumans as the next step in human evolution. They’re pushing to take things even further, convinced that a new race of superhumans could be the key to the future.

The Future of Warfare Technology: The Iron Dome

It’s 2050, and the world is a completely different place. Technology has advanced to a point where traditional weapons are no longer enough. War has evolved, and the battlefield is now filled with something more chilling than any machine or weapon: children who have been genetically engineered to become superhumans.

In a desperate bid for power, governments across the world began experimenting on children, manipulating their DNA even before they were born. These experiments weren’t just about making soldiers stronger or faster—they aimed to create an entirely new kind of human. These kids were designed to be the ultimate warriors, with abilities that go beyond anything we could’ve imagined.

From the moment these children are born, they’re placed in brutal training programs. They never experience a normal childhood; instead, they’re taught to fight, strategize, and endure extreme conditions. Their bodies have been modified to heal faster, endure more pain, and even withstand environmental extremes like radiation or freezing temperatures. But that’s not all. Their minds have been altered too—some can control advanced weapons systems with just their thoughts, and others are connected through a "hive mind," allowing them to work together without speaking.

The scariest part? These kids aren’t just soldiers—they’re weapons. They don’t think like ordinary humans. Their emotions have been stripped away, leaving behind only loyalty to the cause and an instinct to survive at any cost.

As this new generation of bioengineered children takes to the battlefield, the world watches in horror. The moral lines have become blurred. Are these kids still human, or have they become something else entirely? While some governments celebrate their creation as the key to winning wars, others are horrified by the implications. The children, manipulated and trained to serve, have become symbols of everything wrong with this new era of warfare.

Despite the grim reality, a resistance is growing. There are whispers of underground movements fighting to free these children from the clutches of the military powers that created them. People are beginning to ask: how far are we willing to go for victory? And what will happen when these superhuman children, stronger and smarter than their creators, begin to question their purpose?

In 2050, the future of war is no longer about who has the most advanced weapons—it’s about who controls the most powerful minds and bodies. But as these children grow and evolve, the world might be facing a new kind of rebellion—one led by the very beings it created to destroy.
