3. The missle - The missile is probably the most reliably destructive weapon mankind has designed ever. We have all sorts of different kinds of missles. From cheap rocket propelled grenades to nuclear explosions, you can find any sort of missle you can think of. We can design them to go 10 metres or 10,000 kilometres. Missles have become the focus of the next age of warfare. They are on every goverments mind and the goal is; make sure you have them and others don't.
2. The gun - Guns, guns, guns. Todays fights are all fought with guns and have been for a few hundred years now. From hunting in Minnesota to fire fights with the taliban in the middle east you will find a focus on guns. Never before has their been such a variety of one type of weapon. Every detail in each new gun is carefully thought out in order to reach optimal preformance in whatever the goal of the item is. If you are hunting a moose for instance you will need a larger caliber of bullet which means a larger barrel and then you have to put more consideration into how the gun will kick the operator, then when you go to hunt something (or someone) else you will have entirely different considerations put into play. The gun is a complicated balance between practicality and killing power.
1. The sword - No weapon has remained in prominence as long as the sword. It is actually still used for sport today in fencing. For thousands of years the sword was used in every army around the globe. You could go any where and find all different kinds of swords. From curved scimitars in ancient Persia to smaller falcions in rennasaince italy. We've yet to see a weapon with as long a lasting impact on culture and warfare as the sword.
