This is a series on Discovery about future weapons technology (duh). It's had stuff like Metal Storm, laser weapons, the LRAD sound weapon, etc. The previews for the May 17 episode showed a modern Pinz (one with a radiator) carrying a THOR missle launcher. I get the impression that it will get some decent video time, even if the discussion concentrates on the weapon system.

Note this is not the same as the US Thor ballastic missle, it's this: http://www.thalesgroup.co.uk/thales_cor ... s-thor.cfm

I saw the previews for that show.... maybe I can upgrade the Pick Cow with the THOR system? Then I could drop the hammer on Los Angeles traffic. :wink: :lol:

Yeah, I saw the pre-view for that show too. I can't wait to see how they portray the Pinz as a modern(future) weapons platform. It's nice to know that we all own a vehicle that is designed to kick such ass!

Eye candy!
