The laser systems definitely have the potential to be a significant component of that phase transition. Goodness help the current-gen military on the receiving end of both the drone army and the lasers.

And let me say again, I'm not utopian or starry-eyed about these systems. Lasers have their own problems, too. But the sum total of all the techs currently coming down the pike are dripping with potential, and one need not study much history to notice that multiple such phase changes have happened before so it's not like it's a far-out idea.
