In the episode “Mirror Mirror”, the landing party gets swept into a parallel universe where the Federation is basically evil and the organization is run through assassinations and whatnot. In Kirk’s cabin is a device that locates a person, and with a touch of a button, vaporizes them. I guess it’s good that such a device doesn’t exist, because I would sure have been tempted to use it a few times, like on the guy that shot my brother’s dog for sport.
The ‘Homer’ pistol from Logan’s Run
Basically it fires some kind of explosive pellet that detonates on impact, causing a gaping, flaming hole in the person’s torso. No argument over terminal ballistics with that one.
The phaser from Star Trek
With settings from ‘stun’ to ‘disintegrate’, there’s pretty much no target too big. One character from the old series remarked that it was “Devastating! Why…this could kill millions!”
The landmaster, from Damnation Alley
The movie was a flop, but what a bug out vehicle! The vehicle was designed to be a working prop, and was pretty impressive with minor problems. Triangular wheeled suspension, articulated center section, missile launchers. Not to mention showers and a kitchen. What’s not to like from the ultimate tactical RV?
Chain guns on a chassis, no self contained enviornment or climate control, no tracking or targeting system, no physical protection for operator, exposed ammunition belts, no hands…
