Electric rail gun called Blitzer, a sabot round with no gunpowder – all at Mach 5??

I’ve been watching this type of development for a while – this IS Buck Rogers type of stuff (along with the laser directed energy weapons). 7 KM it traveled in a straight line – AFTER going through a steel plate.  THAT, folks, is power!

Sure, it’s a bit on the geeky side, but all politics all the time is, well, boring.
