Dazzlers are disturbingly neat devices. A History Channel demonstration shows that they are so bright they blind and the rate of flashing makes them almost nauseating to look into. They'll put you on the ground, quick.

The green laser pointers are much more noticeable than the red ones, but they still only have a maximum output of 5mW. I don't see how that could possibly blind or even be visible by a pilot.

Mmm... green is pretty, though.

Of course, when speaking of lasers and other really cool stuff, one can not possibly go on without mentioning the truly amazing stuff available out there! Oh, baby -- 100mW in green...
