  RSN hide or down play the harming function of LRAD--

  LONG RANGE ACOUSTIC DEVICES

  ,which was featured in Future Weapon.

  Singapore Technology exhibited it as early as early 2005 and listed

  it as product.But it has been removed fr product list.

  In this article,RSN just says---

  http://www.mindef.gov.sg/imindef/publications/cyberpioneer/features/2009/mar09_cs.html

  ''In addition, the men on board the vessel did not respond when a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) was used in an attempt to establish contact and determine their intentions.''

  

  The LRAD, which works like a loudhailer, enables the MSTF's patrol vessel to communicate with small vessels to ascertain the intentions of the crew and to verify their identities.

   

  In fact,it can make u deaf few hundred meter away!!

  ''The Long-Range Acoustics Device (LRAD) is a new
  bird dispersion device tested in November 2007
  in two of our airbases. It works by transmitting
  recorded birds distress calls up to a range of

  500 to 1000m, and was demonstrated to be
  very effective in scaring birds away. However, at
  maximum volume, it emits a warning tone that is
  higher than the normal human threshold of pain
  (120 to 140 dB), which is capable of damaging
  hearing permanently. As LRAD development
  is still in the experimental stage, the RSAF will
  continue to monitor this technology as it matures.
  serve to contain the wild boar within their habitat
  and thus reduce the risk of intrusion onto the
  runway.''

  Excellent article and Innovation.  Definitely highlights the importance of less lethal weapons for operations other than war for military forces.
