<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There is something a bit odd about this
announcement. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Any such leap in armament technology would
probably be kept very secret. Just this kind of announcement will have the
world's top spies trying to get the details.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. The amount of heat generated by the alleged
gun would quickly melt any known metal. How is the weapon cooled?
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3. Assuming that each cartridge weighs
about 3 ounces, one minute of firing would require (240,000 x 16/3)
=1,280,000 pounds (640 tons) of cartridges.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4. There is a very elaborate military
testing facility outside of Washington, DC.; however the name
of this place is NOT Blossom Point.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Since this weapon uses advance electronics,
maybe its a virtual gun.</FONT></DIV>

Price<BR><BR>METAL STORM DEMONSTRATES REVOLUTIONARY WEAPONS
SYSTEM.<BR><BR>International ballistics technology company, Metal Storm
Limited,<BR>today announced it had successfully completed its first major
test<BR>firing demonstration in the US, of its revolutionary, 100%
electronic<BR>weapons systems.<BR><BR>Senior personnel from the Pentagon
and US Armed Forces viewed the<BR>secured firing demonstrations at the
Blossom Point range outside<BR>Washington DC on July 19 and 20. Metal
Storm's technology, which has<BR>no known equivalent world-wide, and which
some leading defence<BR>figures have described as the most significant
breakthrough in<BR>ballistics over the past 100 years, is being closely
evaluated by the<BR>US Defense Department as a "new age" addition to its
armory.<BR><BR>In March 2000 the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
(DARPA) -<BR>the body responsible for milestone defence projects including
the<BR>Stealth Fighter, M16 Assault Rifle and the JSTARS radar -
contracted<BR>a consortium containing Metal Storm to develop a prototype
advanced<BR>sniper rifle based on the technology. Mr Mike O'Dwyer, CEO of
Metal<BR>Storm, said that the test firings provided US defence
representatives<BR>with their first viewing of Metal Storm's prototype
weapons systems<BR>including:<BR><BR>* a six barrel 9mm system with an
electronically variable burst<BR>firing rate as high as 240,000 rounds per
minute. This system is a<BR>smaller version of a 36 barrel prototype which
has earlier fired a<BR>burst of 180 rounds at a rate exceeding one million
rounds per<BR>minute.<BR><BR>* A 40mm test bed which fires stacked
grenades at rates as high as<BR>20,000 rpm per barrel, which is being
developed as an area-denial<BR>system to replace anti-personnel land mines
as well as a range of<BR>other strategic military and civil
applications.<BR><BR>* A totally electronic specialist police and military
personalised<BR>handgun which is being developed to also incorporate
a<BR>less-than-lethal function. There is increased safety with
these<BR>weapons because their all electronic features will allow
only<BR>authorized users with the correct micro chip to use
them.<BR><BR>According to Mr O'Dwyer, several potential applications were
already<BR>generating significant interest within US defence circles,
including<BR>an anti-personnel landmine replacement, a close-in weapon
system for<BR>ship self-defence and fire fighting applications for
civilian and<BR>military use. He said the US Government's stated objective
to phase<BR>out anti-personnel landmines provided an important
commercial<BR>opportunity for Metal Storm's technology.<BR><BR>"Based on
the latest round of 40mm development and testing in<BR>Australia, we are
closer to making a Metal Storm Area Denial Weapon<BR>System a military
reality," he said.<BR><BR>The technology will be formally introduced in
the US at a press<BR>conference at the National Press Club in Washington
DC on Thursday 27<BR>July. The company also announced it had recently
signed an agreement<BR>with the Bank of New York to enable trade of Metal
Storm American<BR>Depositary Receipts (ADRs) in the US in the near
future.<BR><BR>FURTHER
