Be interesting to see what the projectile looks like. Other than
that, it's all smoke and mirrors.

There's a small pic of the bullet on the DARPA website. Might just be some outfit soaking up tax dollars

I tried to grab the graphic - animated gif - but can't, you'd have to click over to see it.

But here's a video:

So... what's wrong with just leading your target?

Oh someone hurry and make those illegal!

 

[Stomper]

Two round limit... That's just common sense!

they don't tell us the cost, probably stupid expensive.

Darpa needs to create a DNA tracking munition.

Reminds me of the ammo used in the sci-fi flick "Runaway", tho that little sucker would follow you wherever you ran. I think it was tracking the target's unique heat sig if I remember correctly. Crazy.

I wish they would reveal a little more info on how the thing works. Seems impossible.

Might have to dig that one up...good 80's flick.
