And that's just one of the systems they will admit to having! Can you imagine what is coming down the pipe? There are a lot of research labs dreaming up both defensive and offensive weapon systems.

Now I'm worried. The navy still can't stop a launch or pontoon boat loaded with explosives.

Actually, they would not have any problem doing that whatsoever, if they did not have to contend with overly burdensome "Rules of Engagement." Hopefully this President has loosened the reins somewhat, and will allow them to defend themselves.
