Thanks LW50

I know the concept has been around for some time - this sort of thing was being mooted at an RAF Weapons Employment Course that I attended in the mid-1980s (but not as a viable airborne weapon system because of the weight of electrical generating kit required to power the beast).

Agreeing your comments fully - I meant was the video new; from the delivery platform, it looks fairly recent.
