[quote]Their new “Extreme Accuracy Tasked Ordinance” (EXACTO)
bullets seem to function in a similar manner to the laser-guided
bombs developed by US scientists during the Vietnam War. The
technology marries .50 caliber maneuverable bullets with a
real-time guidance system that allow the projectile to change
direction during flight in order to correct for anything that
may throw it off course.
The EXACTO bullets are complete with optical sensors positioned
on the surface of the nose that collect in-flight data which is
then sent to internal systems for interpretation. The data
gathered is then used to adjust the position of a series of
external fins on the projectile, which changes its
direction.[/quote]
