A BULLET THAT CAN CHANGE DIRECTION IN MID AIR




The  United  State   Department   of defense  has  successfully    tested  a  bullet  that can  change  direction ,  after  it  has  been  fired ,using  Fins  built  into  the  shell   to  direct it  into  the  air  and  account  for  wind and   targets   moving.
The   extreme    Accuracy  Tasked  Ordnance  Weapon ,  known  as    Exacto      is  made  by  American  Industrial  company  Teledyne   Technologies .  The  firm    is  making  the  bullet  for  the  American    government's  military  research  agency  Darpa.
In  a  video   made  by  the  company  shows   the  bullet  being  fired   twice ,deliberately   off  target .
The  second time  it  swing back   in  towards   the  target and    hits,
DAR PA ,  the research  arm  of  Pentagon  has  developed  the  EXACT O system   to  put  a  four  inch-  long-bullet     with  an  optical laser   sensor and  an  eight  bit   central  processing   that  can  compute  an  algorithm    to  command   electromagnetic   steering    to  give the  bullet   its  deadly  precision.
Unlike  rifle  bullets  ,EXACTO  has   no  spin.Instead  ,it  travels   like  an  electronic  dart   with  fins  that  can   guide  it  in  mid - air.
A  sniper  team    can  control  the  bullet  after  firing   to  ensure  accuracy   while  compensating  for  weather ,wind, target  movement   and  other  factors.
