Talk:Advanced Tactical Laser

Laser power and class error

This article states: The laser will be a 100 kilowatt-class chemical oxygen iodine laser (COIL). It is expected to have a tactical range of approximately twenty kilometers and weigh about 5,000–7,000 kg. This program is distinct from the Airborne Laser, which is a much larger system designed to destroy enemy missiles in the boost phase.

I understand that the 100 kw laser is solid state and is much lighter. It is not a COIL system. The Airborne Laser is a megawatt system and uses COIL. Please verify and correct this article.

Image caption

Currently, the image caption says "AC-130 with Advanced Tactical Laser onboard" or something like that; yet, there is no concrete mention anywhere else of an AC-130 gunship mounting the weapon--only that the ATL was mounted on a C-130. Unless the addition of the weapon automatically changes the C-130 to an AC-130, the image caption should be changed to match the picture's description, which does in fact say "C-130." — Preceding unsigned comment added by The paccagnellan (talk • contribs) 00:50, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
